Kids depend on adults. When the Disciples asked Jesus who ranked among the greatest in heaven, the Lord advised them to become like children. James and John offered to call down fire from heaven on a Samaritan village that refused to welcome Jesus, but the Lord said to just move on. Jesus had appointed 72 messengers to precede Him to Jerusalem, giving them power to heal wherever they found welcome. At each stop, received in peace or not, the messengers preached the Kingdom of heaven at hand. God gives people talents to use in their individual life circumstances. Do we set goals based on love and measure success by the glory given to our loving God?
