“Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God

belongs to such as these.”

(Mark 10:14)

This past weekend I was able to visit my first grandchild, Charlotte, in Texas. It was a family affair as our entire family got to meet her and spend the weekend in Dallas. In seeing sweet Charlotte, (now just over 1-month old), I was reminded on how dependent upon others a baby is to meet her needs.

That dependence is a good comparison of our relationship with God. It is with a child-like dependence that we have with our heavenly Father and Jesus reminds us of that in the Gospel of Mark.

So what does that mean for us? How might we be a part of God’s kingdom when we are child-like in our faith? These are questions to ask ourselves as each of us are on the journey to follow in the steps of Jesus.

If you weren’t able to come with us to the Padre game last Sunday, you missed a great time! The weather was perfect, the game was fun (except that the Padres lost) and we had a great time being together. We will have

another LCPC day at the Padre game so I hope that you will join us then.

This Sunday we take another look at The Angles of Love at our church as we learn about Jesus being the Good Shepherd.
