THE WELFARE OF A LITTLE CHILD

THE WELFARE OF A LITTLE CHILD

A child is a future, and a blessing to humanity. A child is to be adored and taking care of. A child is to be protected, and loved. A little child means no harm to anyone, as he or she has no enemy, but smiles at everyone around him.

In most cases, even the animals know the importance of a little child, and as such, they care and protect them jealously, knowing that the little child may be its saviour tomorrow.

At times I cry, with tears rolling down my cheeks, when I see parents abusing their little children who were given to them by Almighty God with great love, and I ask myself questions like: “Why would someone abuse a little innocent and harmless child? Why would a father not make his little child his first priority over every other thing in the world? Why would mothers, after an unbearable labour of giving birth, sell their little child for money? Why would someone think of sacrificing a little child for fame and wealth (things that are vanity)? Why would someone nurture such abhorrence towards a little child, who innocently smiled at them?”

Therefore, each time I ask myself these questions, I realise that those who abuses little children do so, due to the fact that they are ignorant about the importance of little children to humanity.

At this end, I urge each and every one of us to love, care and protect every little child, so that the Almighty God, who gave them to us, will be happy with us all.

Thank you and God bless you all.
