I tell you solemnly, unless you change and become like little children you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. And so, the one who makes himself as little as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Mt.18:3,4
Jesus is asked who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. His answer is unexpected... a little child.
Here is the blueprint for Christian life, in a nutshell. To be great I must be small, humble and weak. This is counter cultural in a world that esteems the powerful, rich, good looking and intelligent.
Jesus, help me be small today.
Saint John Bosco, please pray for me.
