Matthew 11: 25 At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children."
The self-interest factor rises again in this passage. Although they are witness to the miracles, those in power fail to get the underlying message. Instead, all they see is the threat to their positions, and they must stop the threat by any means necessary.
The little children, the powerless, have less to protect. They are more open to the truth of the message. They come to know the Father through the Son. This is still true today.
Prayer: Let my eyes be opened, Lord, that I may see You as a little child, as one whose power is nothing compared to the awesome power of Your kingdom. Open my heart to receive Your truths.
Amen
