Child-like or Childish-like faith?

God seeks a childlike submissiveness and meekness, an open heart and a childlike faith in each of His children.  Without this type of willing, unrelenting faith, we cannot please God.


These are all qualities that lead to an open road to God's heart.  Kids are innocent, trusting; content with the little things.  These are just a few of the qualities God is looking for in each of us.


Or are you on the other end of the spectrum?  Are you being childish in your faith?  Are you expecting more and giving less?


As we grow up, we tend to let other outside influences seep into our daily lives.  We allow doubt, fear, anxiety and worry to rob us of our joy and faith in God.


We could all learn something from children.  Stand back and take a good look at your faith walk.  Make sure you can see yourself as a little child and God leading the way in His mighty power.


Matthew 19:14 - "But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.”
