Childlike

Friends,

Among the greatest wonders and joys of childhood is the recurring thrill of discovery. Spend an afternoon with a four year old child and you will frequently be reminded of things around you ... things that have blended into the background for you, but are fresh and new to the eyes of a child.

Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it.” -- Luke 18:17 [NKJV]

These 23 words harken us back to that time of amazement and wonder. We came upon something new and exciting. And we couldn't wait to share it with someone. We could watch it for hours, examining it from every side and marveling at every nuance.

Our Lord is calling us to see the Kingdom in that same way. To trust in its genuineness. To be in awe of the grace and forgiveness that Christ has bestowed upon us. To once again be amazed.

Be encouraged, Jose
