Jesus Blesses Little Children

13 (A)Then some children were brought to Him so that He might lay His hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them. 14 But Jesus said, (a)(B)Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for (C)the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” 15 After laying His hands on them, He departed from there.
