Children

Juan Diego Jaramillo | May 1st, 2021

They hide the most atrocious and scandalous with their pure gaze, they forgive the most absurd and unconscious injustices, they clear their minds of the most immoral and violent behaviors; they expect without hesitation, the best from adults. They embrace with their eyes immersed in sincere cleanliness, as if they were blind and insensitive to any dark and morbid expression that threatens them; they still cry from pain, the constant cause of their aggression.

In the same sadness, they are strong, to encourage their parents and relatives,
possessing little knowledge, through a sublime manifestation of love, they understand everything.

And what else could I say? Words would fail me to describe how extraordinarily valuable and necessary they are for the entire society; For this reason, if not all, the vast majority of us have wished at some point to be children again.

Matthew 18:3 NKJV

3 and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 5:1-10 NKJV

1 And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him. 2 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying:
3 “Blessed are the poor in spirit,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are those who mourn,
For they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek,
For they shall inherit the [a]earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful,
For they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
For they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they shall be called sons of God.
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
