People were bringing little children to Jesus. They wanted him to place his hands on them to bless them. But the disciples told them to stop.When Jesus saw this, he was angry. He said to his disciples,“ Let the little children come to me. Don’t keep them away. God’s kingdom belongs to people like them.What I’m about to tell you is true. Anyone who will not receive God’s kingdom like a little child will never enter it.”Then he took the children in his arms. He placed his hands on them to bless them.

Jesus called a little child over to him. He had the child stand among them.Jesus said,“ What I’m about to tell you is true. You need to change and become like little children. If you don’t, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.Anyone who takes the humble position of this child is the most important in the kingdom of heaven.Anyone who welcomes a little child like this one in my name welcomes me.

The promise is for you and your children. It is also for all who are far away. It is for all whom the Lord our God will choose.”

Some time later Joseph was told,“ Your father is sick.” So he took his two sons Manasseh and Ephraim along with him.

When the boy didn’t need her to breast- feed him anymore, she took him with her to Shiloh. She took him there even though he was still very young. She brought him to the Lord’ s house. She brought along a bull that was three years old. She brought 36 pounds of flour. She also brought a bottle of wine. The bottle was made out of animal skin.

Peter took Jesus to one side and began to scold him.“ Never, Lord!” he said.“ This will never happen to you!”

“ Master,” said John,“ we saw someone driving out demons in your name. We tried to stop him, because he is not one of us.”“ Do not stop him,” Jesus said.“ Anyone who is not against you is for you.”

The crowd commanded them to stop. They told them to be quiet. But the two men shouted even louder,“ Lord! Son of David! Have mercy on us!”

May the Lord give you many children. May he give them to you and to your children after you.May the Lord bless you. He is the Maker of heaven and earth.

I will give them a single purpose in life. Then, they will always have respect for me. Then all will go well for them. And it will also go well for their children after them.

The disciples James and John saw this. They asked,“ Lord, do you want us to call down fire from heaven to destroy them?”But Jesus turned and commanded them not to do it.

“ They are the sons God has given me here,” Joseph said to his father. Then Israel said,“ Bring them to me. I want to give them my blessing.”Israel’s eyes were weak because he was old. He couldn’t see very well. So Joseph brought his sons close to him. His father kissed them and hugged them.Israel said to Joseph,“ I never thought I’d see your face again. But now God has let me see your children too.”Then Joseph lifted his sons off Israel’s knees. Joseph bowed down with his face to the ground.He placed Ephraim on his right, toward Israel’s left hand. He placed Manasseh on his left, toward Israel’s right hand. Then he brought them close to Israel.But Israel reached out his right hand and put it on Ephraim’s head. He did it even though Ephraim was the younger son. He crossed his arms and put his left hand on Manasseh’s head. He did it even though Manasseh was the older son.Then Israel gave Joseph his blessing. He said,“ May God bless these boys. He is the God of my grandfather Abraham and my father Isaac. They walked faithfully with him. He is the God who has been my shepherd all my life right up to this day.He is the Angel who has saved me from all harm. May he bless these boys. May they be called by my name. May they also be called by the names of my grandfather Abraham and my father Isaac. And may the number of them greatly increase on the earth.”Joseph saw his father putting his right hand on Ephraim’s head. And Joseph didn’t like it. So he took hold of his father’s hand to move it over to Manasseh’s head.Joseph said to him,“ No, my father. Here’s my older son. Put your right hand on his head.”But his father wouldn’t do it. He said,“ I know, my son. I know. He too will become a nation. He too will become great. But his younger brother will be greater than he is. His children after him will become a group of nations.”On that day, Jacob gave them his blessing. He said,“ The people of Israel will bless others in your name. They will say,‘ May God make you like Ephraim and Manasseh.’ ” So he put Ephraim ahead of Manasseh.

The unbelieving husband has been made holy through his wife. The unbelieving wife has been made holy through her believing husband. If that were not the case, your children would not be pure and“ clean.” But as it is, they are holy.
