And they were bringing children to Him so that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked them. But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and said to them, *Permit the children to come to Me. Do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child will not enter it at all.* And Jesus took the children in His arms and began blessing them, laying His hands on them. Mark 10:13-15
