I am a father of five. Over the years I have pondered: “Be like little children.”

I would like to hear other reflections on: “Be like little children.”

Please add to the list.

Thank you!!! :irish2:

Be like little children.
A. If you believe, you will grow (Irenaeus’ principle of growth and Greg. Nyssa’s principle of perfection—that is, growth is perfection.) Children grow.
B. They love their parents “unconditionally.”
C. Learn countless words (God’s words); we learn God’s language
D. No sinning
E. Pure as fresh snow
F. They love unconditionally.

K. Babies need and love their parents
L. Love to play and don’t worry about future
