Luke 18:16 

16 But Jesus called for the children, saying, “Let the little children come to me and do not try to stop them,

 for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

 

 

Apple and cause

 

Children’s laughter all around … hope and love abounds

One day these children grow up to face another round

Careless and free their heart’s desire … faith in life lives on

This stops when they grow up as they duplicate dad and mom

 

The apple falls not far from the tree … but some will roll downhill

Only One knows what will be … but often He keeps still

The care of this worldly realm will one day demands its toll

The flesh will then be overwhelmed by the pursuit of too many goals

 

One way in or many out … a world of complete confusion

Storms of life with darkened clouds presenting great illusions

“One bird in hand” a motto … that leads towards: “Astray”

As in a quick search called: “Pronto” our heart then has to pay
