Today at church my son reminded me of the verse where Jesus said, "Unless you change and become like little children, you will not enter into the kingdom of heaven." Matthew 18:3.
As I watched him during worship, I watched his eyes wonder from person to person, waving and pointing to those he recognized. Then, I noticed him look back at the woman behind us who had her arm in the air worshipping. He immediately raised his arm and started singing. That's when that verse popped into my head. We need to become like little children. My son learns from us. He notices what we do and repeats it. He trusts that we are doing what we are supposed to be doing. He trusts us to take care of him, love on him, and to be there for him when he needs us. He knows we will. He has faith in us just like we should have faith in God. We need to trust God like our children trust us. We need to have faith in him like our children have faith in us. As I continued to watch him, he started pointing up to the ceiling and waving and saying hi to whatever he saw. I'm not exactly sure what he saw, but I truly believe he saw something. GOD is with us always! He is wanting us to become innocent, fully trusting and having faith in him.... faith that he is right there with us. .. ALWAYS!
Thank you my sweet child for reminding me to fully trust my father just like you trust us, your parents!
