- Reading: Mark 10.13 – 16 Jesus and the children
- 2nd Reflection: ‘Ready to receive?’
- Have you got the time
- The disciples assume Jesus doesn't have the time for the children and their mothers
- Surely Jesus has more important things to do?
- The children is precisely what the Kingdom of God is about
- We can't earn the blessing, we have to accept it as a gift
- The Kingdom of God is a gift, nothing to do with our endeavours to improve our intellects, CVs etc.
- Are we ready to receive like the children
- Jesus tells his disciples to learn from the children who were coming to Jesus to be blessed.
- Are we willing to do that today?
- Reading: 1 Corinthians 10.23-26 Receiving Christ
