Matthew 18:2

Holy Bible: Easy-to-Read Version

Jesus called a little child to come to him. He stood the child in front of the followers.

See the chapter Copy

Lord my God, you have made me the king in my father’s place, but I am like a small child. I don’t have the wisdom I need to do what I must do.

But the Lord said to me, “Don’t say, ‘I am only a boy.’ You must go everywhere I send you and say everything I tell you to say.

About that time the followers came to Jesus and asked, “Who is the greatest in God’s kingdom?”

Then he said, “The truth is, you must change your thinking and become like little children. If you don’t do this, you will never enter God’s kingdom.
