The Sacredness of babies

I think we see babies too much and we tend to take them for granted. Next time you see a baby just take a moment to think about that little baby. There is something incredible about babies.
In our intellectual world we tend to look at babies as cute, but certainly not someone who understands. A few years ago I read this book called Wishful Thinking by Frederick Buechner and was touched by his thoughts on infant baptism. Basically, he said that we shouldn’t neglect the fact that a little baby might have a far more intimate relationship with God then any adult with all their intellectual understanding.

Babies are cute and beautiful, but they are much more then that.
