Like A Child
A Child’s Enthusiastic Faith
“3 And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me.”
Matthew 18:3–5
New International Version (NIV)
We welcomed two new kids today into our Sunday School class, and their excitement reminded me of the joy I felt when I first gave my heart to Christ.
Children have a perspective we often overlook, until we spend time teaching them, I have been working in the Children’s Ministry in one form or another since 2004, and before that I had a hand in helping to raise my oldest niece!
Each child of course has their own story, their own way, but watching them grow in faith is a constant reminder of just how much Jesus loves children, and how much he must hurt when a child hurts.
