Hen
HEN
Jesus compared himself to a hen gathering chicks.
Matthew 23:37
““Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her! How often I would have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you would not!”
What kids can learn
Jesus wants to gather people close, and some refuse.
It is one of the tenderest pictures of him.
