Do You Hear What These Children Are Saying? - Matthew 21:14-17
God, the Holy Spirit, use His children to proclaim His praises. He uses parents to prepare the children for their calling.
16th Sunday after Pentecost
“The blind and the lame came to him at the temple, and he healed them. But when the chief priests and the teachers of the law saw the wonderful things he did and the children shouting in the temple courts, “Hosanna to the Son of David,” they were indignant.
“Do you hear what these children are saying?” they asked him.
“Yes,” replied Jesus, “have you never read,
“‘From the lips of children and infants
you, Lord, have called forth your praise’?”
And he left them and went out of the city to Bethany, where he spent the night.”
