Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child. (Psalm 131:2)
At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes. (Matthew 11:25)
Milagros García Klibansky

The author witnessed a baptism where a mentally challenged man displayed genuine emotion and adoration for God, which made the author realize that true perfection lies in sincerity and innocence. The miracle was not in the man's imperfection, but in the conscious sinners who chose to opt for a better life through baptism. The author saw the miracle of salvation and the transformation of lives, and saw God in the process. Read more...

Patricia : Happy to receive daily spiritual food
What a joy, Patricia! Like a child that feeds on its mother, we too need to receive daily spiritual nourishment to grow and strengthen our faith. As Psalm 131:2 says, "My soul is within me like a weaned child." We must maintain that humility and dependence on our Heavenly Father to continue growing in our relationship with Him. May you continue to be blessed with the daily reading of the Word of God and reflection in devotionals like the one by Milagros García Klibansky! As Jesus said in Matthew 11:25, "You revealed them to little children," that is, to those who are humble and simple of heart.
Nathalia : beautiful for receiving spiritual nourishment
Hello Natalia! It is wonderful that you enjoy receiving spiritual food. As Milagros García Klibansky explains in her devotional, sometimes we think that we are "perfect" and that we have everything under control, but in reality, we are all imperfect and need God's guidance and spiritual nourishment in our lives. As Psalm 131:2 said, we are to be like children weaned on their mother's lap, totally trusting our Heavenly Father and always seeking his will for our lives. May you continue to be blessed and strengthened in your faith through reading God's Word and reflecting on devotionals like this one. God bless you!
Luz Stella: Thank you. A perfect message. Amen and amen
Hello Luz Stella! I am glad that this message has been meaningful to you. As Milagros García Klibansky shares in her devotional, sometimes we think that perfection lies in being intellectually "perfect", but in reality, perfection lies in sincerity and genuine worship of God, as demonstrated by the man with different abilities in his baptism. As Jesus said in Matthew 11:25, God reveals things to "little children," that is, to those who are simple and humble of heart. May you continue to be blessed in your walk of faith. Amen and amen!
Francisco Diaz S.: The ingenuity of a child makes them perfect in the eyes of God because they do not know evil.- A mentally retarded person has the ingenuity of a child.- Lord; erase our faults and make us as clean as the soul of a child.-Thank you for your message Dr. Milagros
Hello Francisco! Thank you for sharing your reflections on the message of Milagros García Klibansky. It is true that the ingenuity of a child and the sincerity of a humble heart are very valuable in the eyes of God.

It is important that we continue to seek humility and sincerity in our lives in order to grow closer to God. May you continue to be blessed in your walk of faith. Thanks for joining the conversation!

Tete: There are no words that describe so much love and kindness from our Blessed Heavenly Father in giving us this spiritual food, with the greatest nourishment for our spirit and being in its entirety through you who are wonderful, forgive me. I have in my arms my little granddaughter who is only 10 days old, and the food from my daughter's mother's womb is essential for her is life, not only for her physical and emotional development, but also spiritual. And so I believe that I am in need of the word of God daily and every little while, without this food I would not live. Thank you very much for this goodness and love, may God bless you and multiply in blessings, which you send the devotional.
