Matthew 11:26

"At that time, Jesus answered, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants."

Key Reflection

In this verse, Jesus expresses gratitude to the Father for revealing divine truths to those who are considered spiritually immature or simple, contrasting sharply with the wisdom of the world. This highlights that true understanding comes not from human intellect but from God’s grace and revelation.
