COME AS A CHILD

“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.'” Matthew 18:2-4 (NIV)

Is there anything more exciting than being a child on Christmas morning? And yet this is what God asks of us each day, to change and become like little children. Not just on Christmas but each day, approaching God the Father as a child with excited anticipation of his goodness and then humbly trusting him that our every need will be met and our every care will be under his control.
