"Suffer little children to come unto me and forbid them not for of such is the kingdom of heaven. "

(Luke 18:16.)

Progress arises from the constant succession of varied labors on all fronts of human activity.

One effort accompanies another, one objective more highly perfected modifies man’s movements.

Life after life, generation after generation, humanity goes on receiving light and polishing.

All future life, therefore, depends inevitably on the present life, all future harvests depend upon the present sowing.

Infancy, therefore, signifies the vibrations of hope in future days, notwithstanding the fragility which characterizes it.

The ingenuousness of thoughts and mildness of ways endow the child with the traces of sentimental virginity necessary to the spirit for climbing the higher stages of evolution. That is why the Lord with great propriety chose childhood as the symbol of purity indispensable to the sustenance of being in the Greater Life.

In the period of childhood we find incontrovertible proofs that the soul possesses, in its own essence, the potential conditions for the angelic state.

It is urgent, therefore, that we learn how to live with this simplicity of children in the route to maturity, renouncing the inferior expressions of selfishness and pride, of cunning and cruelty which we so often hide behind gestures of apparent nobility.

In the kingdom of God, no one grows up to be evil.

Let us be simple, living spontaneous good.

Therefore, observe in yourself the positive signals you conserve from infancy as an index of the moral values for the upward journey.

Be a child in relation to the evil which perturbs and strikes, realizing the maturity of your feelings in the creation of pure love, for only in pure love shall we find access to the Eternal Sublimation to which we are destined.

Emmanuel
