2 He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. 3 And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

Matthew 18:2–4

New International Version

He said

Become like

A little child

In all their

Innocence

and wonder.

and yet some

Take that childhood

And stomp on

It like

It doesn’t matter.

He said

Teach a child

My ways

So they may

Grow up

To know

The light

Don’t let

Them be

Lost to The

Darkness

Blinded to

The lies.

He said

See this

Child

There a gift

A treasure sent

From Heaven

Above

Please shower

Them

In Christ-like Love.
