“Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become
like children, you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven.” With these words Jesus reminds us again this morning
that if we want to be his disciples, we have to keep turning- that’s what
conversion means- you keep
turning around and learning to live as if God were truly in charge.
Still we know all that turning and turning
can be exhausting. But it’s worth it, for then as little ones we will be
totally dependent on him and even dependent on one another. And then the
kingdom of God will happen in our midst.
Let us turn and go down to the very low place of our sinfulness, we will find
the Lord there waiting to forgive and mercy us.
