In today’s video devotional, Rev. Lewis Galloway discusses how Jesus blessing the children becomes a lens for reflecting on God’s habit of reversing human values. Where the world overlooks the small and powerless, Jesus stops, gathers the children close, and offers blessing and belonging. This act echoes a broader biblical theme in which God lifts up the lowly and calls care and attention to those on the margins. During Lent, we are invited to examine our own assumptions about importance and power, and to listen for how Christ is calling us to care for “the least of these.”
