"But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein." - Luke 18:16-17Sometimes, I think we forget what it means to have faith like a child. We forget because a child thinks too simply.
In their minds, there are no problems that cannot be solved. Dandelions are wishes. Rain is for splashing in. Life is their oyster, and the pearl just for them. Friends are people to enjoy and treasure. Family is for laughing with, crying with, and loving no matter what. And following Jesus is simply that: He loves me, and I love Him... with all of my heart.
This is what faith should be.
So true! Thanks for posting!
