Last weekend my 4 year old grand daughter and I were sitting on the swing in the back yard talking. She asked me where my Mommy was. I told her she was in heaven. She then asked me, “Drampa, will you pray that God will let us live a long time?”

I stopped and we prayed.

Then she told me that she was going to live forever. I told her that, because of Jesus, we could all live forever, but not in these bodies. She gave me a look like she already knew that, was waiting for me to catch up, and simply said, “I know.”

“At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”
