Epistle

Be Like Children

Children rejoice not because they have little, but because they have enough. The Kingdom of Heaven belongs to them — not for their innocence, but for their aliveness.

PresenceStillnessThe Kingdom

Children rejoice not because they have little, but because they have enough. They find wonder where adults look for reasons. A child needs no wine for the world to come alive — only life.

We do not lose the joy of childhood through age. We lose it through the habit of filling emptiness instead of finding meaning in it. We learn to fear silence — and drown it out with the noise of busyness, plans, and anxieties.

The Kingdom of Heaven belongs to children not because they are innocent, but because they are alive. They don’t search for justifications for joy — they simply rejoice. They don’t prepare for Presence — they are in it.

Be like children. Don’t fill life — live it.

This moment is already enough. This silence is already full. This simple breath — is already Presence. Just let yourself notice.
