The Balance is of God, In His Shoes

God takes care of His children. He hides them within His shadow. There, no harm shall touch them. The enemy cannot perform his devices. Children are a blessing. If anyone harms them, they just may be bitten by a serpent. God protects His own, and He loves the little children. The bible says,

⁶ But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

Children are innocent. It is made manifest by their behavior. God said that we must become like a child if we want to enter the kingdom. They take direction from their superior, and know not any sin. The sin of this world is taught to them. That is why parents must be careful to raise up a child in the way that they should go so that when they are old, they will not depart. There are children in God’s shadow, and they are the children of His shadow.
