HEEMBRACEDTHEMANDBLESSEDTHEM Today Jesus stresses how children embody the reign of God. They are trusting and loving and have hearts that are open to love. They are joyful when they are made aware of God’s love for them, and are eager to return that love. This is the model Jesus holds out to us if we want to wel-come the reign of God. We need to have open, lov-ing hearts. We must drop our defenses, however we came by them, and welcome Christ’s love for us with joy. This is impossible for us on our own. Only the grace of God will enable us to do this, but that grace is freely and generously given. We have only to accept it. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

LOSABRAZÓYLOSBENDIJO Hoy Jesus recalca que el Reino de Dios perte-nece a los que son como los ninos. Son con iados, tiernos y tienen el corazon abierto al amor. Se ale-gran cuando se dan cuenta del amor que Dios sien-te por ellos y estan mas que dispuestos a retribuir ese amor. Este es el modelo que Jesus nos presenta si queremos recibir el Reino de Dios. Debemos abrir el corazon y amar. Debemos bajar la guardia, sin importar por que la hayamos montado, y reci-bir con alegrıa el amor que Cristo siente por noso-tros. Es imposible que hagamos esto sin ayuda. Solo la gracia de Dios nos permitira hacerlo y esa gracia se nos concede generosamente y sin condi-ciones. Lo unico que debemos hacer es aceptarla.

Dejen que los ninos se acerquen a mı y no se lo im-pidan, porque el Reino de Dios es de los que son como ellos. —Marcos10:14 PEQUEÑOPLANETA Mientras vivamos todos juntos en este peque-no planeta, necesitaremos dulzura humana, carino humano.—DalaiLama
