Friday's Devotional - 8/07/2026

Good morning! Children are often treated as less important—less influential, less valuable, and less deserving of attention. Even in Jesus' day, the disciples tried to turn them away. But Jesus did something remarkable. He stopped what He was doing, welcomed the children, and made them a priority when others were dismissing them.

To be like Jesus is to value what He values. If His heart made room for children, ours should too. Whether it's investing in the next generation, serving in children's ministry, encouraging a young family, or simply taking time to listen to a child, we reflect Christ when we make space for those He welcomed. May we never overlook the people Jesus called close. Bless what blesses Jesus' heart and you will always make a great day!
