I read Isaiah 11:6-9, and I've always loved this passage but I've never really found an application to share at the jail or the mission. But this morning I realized there are eight references to innocent children and vulnerable young animals. That was the link, the overwhelming majority of the people I speak to have been abused and molested. 

Aww, but not so in God's kingdom where - 

  "The wolf will lie down with the lamb,

And the leopard will lie down with the young goat,

And the calf and the young lion and the yearling will be together;

And a little child will lead them.

7 Also the cow and the bear will graze,

Their young will lie down together,

And the lion will eat straw like the ox. 

8 The nursing child will play by the hole of the cobra,

And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper’s den.

9 They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain,

For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the LORD

As the waters cover the sea."
