The book presents stories about children of the Old Testament, New Time and Modern Time. We will see the attitude towards children as a gift from God, with which the Lord blessed parents for their piety, because while waiting for the Savior, everyone wanted his descendant to meet the Messiah. Old Testament children were raised in families that were imbued with religious life. The child saw an example of observance of God’s Law from his parents and tried to imitate them. We learn about children who, from birth, with their mother’s milk, absorbed the love of Christ. They sought to keep God’s commandments, honor their parents, and lead a Christian life filled with purity, meekness and good deeds. Here we will meet children who, fearing neither threats nor cruel torture, suffered for their faith in Christ. By becoming like children, a person acquires simplicity of character, gets rid of guile, does not seek to use his neighbor for his own benefit, but sees in him the image of God. An Orthodox Christian with a child’s heart turns to the Lord and, receiving the fulfillment of his prayer desires, cultivates faith, hope and love in his soul. 12+
