So I was sitting in the chapel waiting for RCIA class to start and it was perfectly peaceful. It was a time of Eucharistic Adoration (Eucharistic Adoration is the worship of Jesus Christ present in the Holy Eucharist. In the many Churches that have this adoration, the Eucharist is displayed in a special holder called a monstrance, and people come to pray and worship Jesus continually throughout the day) So there are about five other people sitting quietly in the chapel.
Then walks in a young father with a child. The child was in a stroller and couldn't have been older than eighteen months. The father kneeled before the monstrance out of reverence and proceeded to the back of the chapel. Then all the sudden I hear the child half crying, half yelling "DADA, DADA, DADA" the yelling definitely broke the peaceful silence. Typically I would've been annoyed but this time was different.The Spirit impressed on me that's what our Heavenly Father wants from us in prayer, to approach him in total dependence as his sons and daughters. How awesome is the grace of God that he can use a crying infant to teach us about His love!
Matthew 19:14 "Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.”
