Childlike Faith

Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”

The faith of a child. The days before they begin, or began, to question everything, "Why? Why? Why?" Many of us remember those days fondly. The times when whatever dad or mom said was gospel, and God forbid anyone should disagree, or say that what dad or mom told them was wrong or false. That is the kind of faith God desires from His children. The kind of faith that says, "God says it, and therefore it is true." That does not mean that we are not to study God's Word; for this is the way we get to know Him, and His will for our lives. It guides our way. Childlike faith helps us to believe the truths God has recorded for us in His Word for what they are...the truth. Childlike faith allows us to trust Him completely with our lives (as it should be). Unlike us, who often fail our children, God NEVER fails us. So today, trust Him with whatever truth you learn from His Word (yes, that means you should read your Bible today, and every day). Obey Him, and stay on the path He guides you on; for our God is the only Father who is truly faithful, and will never steer us in the wrong direction.
