BIBLICAL TOUCHSTONES<br />

Before I formed you in the womb I knew you.<br />

JEREMIAH 1:5<br />

Jesus realized the intention of their hearts and<br />

took a child and placed it by his side and said to<br />

them, “Whoever receives this child in my name<br />

receives me, and whoever receives me receives<br />

the one who sent me. For the one who is least<br />

among all of you is the one who is the greatest.”<br />

LUKE 9:47-48<br />
