My Daily Pause

The above link is an MSNBC article discussing a recent survey of youths age 13-24. While I’d say there is still some work to be done on influencing them properly and exposing them to proper values, this survey reveals a very exciting truth: Our young are happiest and feel safest in a family environment where religion plays a role in the lifestyle.

Matthew 19:13-15Matthew 19:13-15
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV
13 Then were there brought unto him little children, that he should put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples rebuked them. ¹⁴ But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven. ¹⁵ And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.  

describes an event where Christ desired to put his hands on (or give special blessings to) the children being brought to Him even though his disciples rebuked the parents for doing so. Jesus holds his children dear and desires to fill heaven with those of us that would be as children. Perhaps this article proves that special relationship that children have with Christ through the safety happiness they feel in a Christian home.
