See that you do not look down on any of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of My Father in heaven.
Matthew 18:10

Their angels
Jesus warns: don't look down on the little ones. Children, but also those who are small and vulnerable in the community.
The idea of guardian angels goes back largely to this verse. How exactly it works, Jesus doesn't say. But the message is clear. Whoever is small in people's eyes has a direct line to God in heaven.
Question for today
Who am I looking down on, without noticing?
Prayer
Father, thank you that you see the little ones. Teach me to despise no one, and protect those who are vulnerable. Amen.
