In the second half of today’s gospel reading Jesus rebukes His disciples for hindering the children from coming to Him. We are all children of God—what is it that stands in our way and causes us to stray?
Today’s reading clearly demonstrates God’s love for all of us as He reiterates how much He wants to see us, wants to help us, wants to just be there for us in any way. It is our own shortcomings that prevent us from feeling Him at our sides at every moment.
So I challenge you all to look inside yourselves and find exactly what it is that is keeping you from running into God’s outstretched arms and confiding wholly in Him.
Discard your distractions, your feelings of inadequacy, even those people and events that deter you from seeking out God’s presence in every day life. Trust Him. Trust yourself. Allow yourself to accept the endless blessings.
