Jesus welcomes children tenderly and corrects those who block their way; his example calls us to listen, care, and protect.
Editorial reflection inspired by the Gospels; it is not a literal quotation from Jesus.
Jesus, teach me to welcome little ones with the tenderness and respect you showed. Give me patience to hear their questions, recognize their feelings, and protect their safety. Help me set boundaries that protect without humiliating and ask for support when my strength runs low. May my words and actions remind them that their dignity deserves attention and care. Amen.
