BE APPROACHABLE
Mark 10:14
But when Jesus saw it, He was greatly displeased and said to them, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God.
The idea that we are too big or too important or too spiritual to be easily approachable is highly wrong. We must learn to be accommodative to the people around us irrespective of their age, social class, race or any such thing.
When little children tried to come close to Jesus, the disciples stopped them. But the Bible makes us understand that this displeased Jesus highly. He didn't like it at all. He was an open minded man. He wanted to be approachable. Some people have turned their Christianity or ministry into a system where they are highly unapproachable to people.
Some people don't even smile or respond to the greetings of others simply because 'they want to be respected'. This is so wrong and this is nothing like Jesus. People who live like this lack a sense of love in their hearts. It's not how we should be.
The same way Jesus was displeased when the disciples stopped those kids from coming to Him, is the same way He is displeased when we behave that way towards others. We must learn to be approachable to people, because we are carriers of solutions. If we must release what we have efficiently, then we must be approachable in love. You're blessed. -TCF
