“Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven…” Jesus “Conversations Within” ts 5/9/2019
Grace modeste- an "unassuming grace." Any discussion of a spiritual nature should reflect this mutual kindness. The following are simply my devotional reflections each morning. I cast them like "bread upon the waters," hoping that all who find them will find something of value to nurture their own inner life.

“Don't grow up! It's a trap.” Jonah Lake
I can think of many good reasons why Jesus told us that we must become as little children to enter His kingdom. Children put simple faith in their parents, and childlike trust is all that God asks from us. Children live with enthusiasm, live curious, and never stop asking questions and exploring. But the one quality that Jesus highlighted is the simple humility expressed when children do as they are told, and likewise when we submit to God’s directions.
