"Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like children, you will never enter
the kingdom of heaven."
Maddie's brother spoke up, "But Grandpa, her hair is coming, and yours is going!"
Perspective makes all the difference. Some people we like and some we don't. That's life or is it?
Maybe we can change our perspective. No we can't change others. In many ways, we cannot
change our world, but we can change our perspective.
Ronald Newhouse, Texas, USA
(Matthew 18:3
NRSV)
At a family reunion, much was made of one-year-old Maddie. She had so little hair that her
mother had taped a bow on her head to show that she was a girl. Maddie's grandfather said that
she had about as much hair as he did.
Prayer: Loving God, help me change my perspective and find good in all of your people.
Amen.
