"They shall be my people and I will be their God" - the crux of the faith that has been handed down to us through centuries, is this covenant that God made with our ancestors in faith. God has remained faithful ever since. St. Paul reminds us in his letter to Timothy, even "if we are faithless, he remains faithful - for he cannot deny himself" (2Tim 2:13). Being God's people means being like children - focused totally on God, taking directions from God, and always remaining open and docile to God's promptings, as do the children who are fascinated by their parents. Divisions, partisan feelings and ego trips are so alien to children that they radiate such levels of godliness. Though it may sound a paradox, let us grow up to be children, only then can we inherit the Reign!
