"Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven." (Matt. 18:3)

"Last night my little boy confessed to me some childish wrong; and, kneeling at my knee, He prayed with tears, 'Dear God, make me a man Like Daddy--wise and strong; I know that You can.' Then, while he slept I knelt beside his bed, confessed my sins, and prayed with bowed head, 'O God, make me like a child, like my child here, pure, guileless, trusting thee with faith sincere.'" (From Andrew Gillies, in Pulpit Helps, June, 1992)
