HOW TO RAISE YOUR CHILDREN

Saturday of the Nineteenth Week in Ordinary Time: Year C Matthew 19:13-15 "Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs." Children are not disturbance. They are not burdens but blessings. Anything we do to hinder children from coming to Jesus displeases our dear Lord. Sometimes we are like the disciples in today’s gospel. We think that children are disturbance. Many of us we prevent our children to be close to God. Friends, care about what God cares about. Challenge: Raise your children to love God. Bring them to the faith. Don’t keep them at home. Parent’s witnessing is best way to attract kids going to church. You know what, a church without children is dead. If your church is noisy because of children, rejoice because your church is alive. Let your parish be filled with children. Let the church be their safe abode. Blessings Fr. Jhack
