Love like a child

This morning in church, a bunch of people went up to the altar to pray for various reasons. One woman in particular may have been a children's worker (this is my church in Salisbury and I still don't know everyone yet), because she seemed pretty popular with the kiddos. Why? Well that's the best part of my story!
The woman went up to the altar and knelt to pray (along with several other respective individuals who prayed there today). A moment later, I saw a tiny little girl--maybe 5 years old--walk right up to the altar and lean up against that woman she seemed to know. In a matter of probably 2 minutes, 3 or 4 other well-meaning young children walked up there to support their adult friend in prayer.

This small event touched my heart (just couldn't help but have tears in my eyes!) while I witnessed the love that a few small children gave to a hurting adult. I also felt extremely proud of those kids and I don't even know them!
Children have a way of loving compassionately and unconditionally without thinking, will everyone look at me? or does she even want any company at the altar while she prays? They don't have to think those things--they just love.

To summarize my thoughts here, I think it'd be AMAZING if everyone, in this case, loved like a child. How great would someone feel to know that so many people in a congregation (including children) loved them and wanted to offer them their support? I think it'd be pretty incredible. :)
