Jesus Called A Child

 

At that time the disciples came to Jesus, asking, "Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven?"

So Jesus called a child, had him stand in front of them, and said, "I assure you that unless you change and become like children, you will never enter the Kingdom of heaven. The greatest in the Kingdom of heaven is the one who humbles himself and becomes like this child. And whoever welcomes in my name one such child as this, welcomes me."

Matthew 18:1-5

Do you have the faith of a child, or do you try to analyze things? Do you try to rationalize the world in which you live? Do you try to explain how you came to be here on earth, right now? When you finally realize you don’t have the answers, you are ready to come to God, as a child!

Practice the simple and uncomplicated faith of a child.

Faith shines the brightest in a childlike heart.
