Matthew 11:25-27
At that time Jesus answered and said: I confess to thee, O Father, Lord of Heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to little ones. Yea, Father: for so hath it seemed good in thy sight. All things are delivered to me by my Father. And no one knoweth the Son but the Father: neither doth any one know the Father, but the Son, and he to whom it shall please the Son to reveal him.
In Matthew 11:25-27, Jesus praises the Father for revealing divine mysteries to the childlike. God’s wisdom is often hidden from the proud but received by the humble. This Gospel invites us to approach faith not as something to master, but as a gift to receive. Childlike faith is not childish; it is trusting, open, and sincere. Jesus reveals the Father to those who are willing to listen with humble hearts. Today, may we let go of pride and allow God to teach us through prayer, Scripture, and simple daily grace.
