Why do We Cherish?
“And whoever welcomes a little child
like this in my name welcomes me.”
Matthew 18:5 NIV
“See that you do not look down onone of these little ones.
For I tell you that their angels in heavenalways see the face of my Father in
heaven.”Matthew 18:10 NIV
We are to cherish the children,not because they are precious,
but because they are precious to God!
