Reflection
Joshua 24:14-29, Matthew 19:13-15

“The only thing that matters”
Jesus continues to call us to be like little children in the sense of being child-like and not childish. To be child-like is to have a simple and trusting faith that leads us to open ourselves to respond to God’s call for a deeper communion with Him. As we enter more into relationship with God, we start to realise that when everything is stripped away, the only thing that matters is Him.

Today, let us be open to go on an adventure with Jesus.

Question for reflection:
1) What is the one obstacle that prevents me from being child-like in my faith so that I can enter into a loving communion with Jesus?
