Mark 10:1-16, March 17
Devotional - Mark 10:1-16
Mark 10:14-15 (NIV) – “When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.’”
In Mark 10:1-16, Jesus shows us how much He loves and values children. When the disciples tried to send them away, Jesus welcomed them, saying the kingdom of God belongs to those who are like little children. Children have a special trust and belief in Jesus, and He calls us to receive Him with the same openness and faith.
As the church, we are called to remember that we don’t need to understand everything to trust God completely. We need to have the kind of faith that children have a faith that is simple, pure, and ready to believe in God’s love for us. Just as children run to Jesus without holding back, the church is called to do the same, trusting in Him wholeheartedly.
Lord, help us believe in You with the pure trust of children.
