"Tell Jesus I said Hi...If you look, you can see Him"
"This little boy saw his mother getting ready to go to the temple. He asked her to tell Jesus hi for him. His mother said 'I doubt I will see Him.' The little boy responded, 'If you look hard enough, you can.'"
In Matthew 18:4 (in the Bible) and in Mosiah 3:19 (Book of Mormon) it speaks of becomming like little children. The purpose of this is for us to be willing to learn. Believing in everyone around us. Not knowing doubt, fear, bitterness, and so on.
The little boy in the story knew that Jesus was at the temple. That is what he has been taught. He doesn't care about the things of the world. All he cares about is that his message to his Savior gets to Him.
Now reread this story. Who is the one being taught? The little innocent boy, or the all wise parent?
Look for Christ in all we do. Teach our children for they are the ones that will be teaching us someday. Set the example for them to fallow. For our Father and our Brother have done that for us already. But its up to us to be as a little child and look up to our great Father and loving Brother.
