Musing From Matthew Looking Down On The Lowly Ones{Matthew 18:10-11}

Let us muse again today from Matthew 18: 10 – 11 and the theme of Jesus The King. It is in our text we find strong admonition on The text tells us not to despise them. The word despise has the idea of considering them as unimportant, think them as nothing or of little value. The phrase little one can consider three groups of people. It could be little of stature or age. It could refer to little in mental capacity or could refer to poor in financial status. We are told these precious ones are guarded by Angels that are right on the front row of Heaven always beholding the face of the Father. He reminds us that the only thing that gives us standing with the Father is that we were lost and now we have been found by his son Jesus the Good Shepherd.
