Mark 10:13-16

Jesus Blesses Little Children

13 ^aAnd they were bringing children to Him so that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked them. 14 But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and said to them, “Permit the children to come to Me; do not hinder them; ^afor the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. 15 Truly I say to you, ^awhoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child will not enter it at all.” 16 And He ^atook them in His arms and began blessing them, laying His hands on them.
