Communion Reflections
 

Children learn what they live

Children learn what they live

If children live with criticism they learn to condemn.

If they live with hostility they learn to fight.

If they live with ridicule they learn to be shy.

If they live with shame they learn to feel guilty.

If they live with tolerance they learn to be patient.

If they live with encouragement they learn to have confidence.

If they live with praise they learn to appreciate.

If they live with fairness they learn what justice is.

If they live with security they learn what faith is.

If they live with approval they learn to like themselves.

If they live with acceptance and friendship they learn to find love and God in the world.
