What did I immediately think about after reading this post?

At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"

He called a little child and had him stand among them. And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

Nobody seems to understand that when Jesus said the kingdom of God is at hand, he wasn't talking about the end of the world. When we act as the little girl did in Waiter's story, we create a piece of heaven on Earth; here and now.

The kingdom of God is at hand.
