Little children

'And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." 'NIV Matthew 18:3

It is wonderful
To have no knowledge of man
As a newborn child .

Just pure innocence
Curiosity in all
God's fine creations.

Is our path on earth
Dying from our day of birth
Learning, the first step?

By hungry little children.

Yes, floria. Little children are God's wonderful prize golden gifts! But, too often we quickly, aggressively force them into some strange commodities to fit our darkened perceptions. I'm still a little child and  hope I never grow out of my cherished childhood, which I dearly relish. Whee! LOL... I love being a child and I, too adore children.

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Newell, this is soooooo heartwrenchingly beautiful, it breaks my heart to see so many deprive themselves of their innocence and go about their nonchalant ways without believing in what they used to believe and find the magic and pride to themselves to use the power of unconditional love to everyone around them! (big hugggssssss) My heart cries out to the world and I pray we all can understand how important innocence is to us all, sweet friend, we all love you so much, God Bless You! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Newell, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
