A Child's Mind


I think the reason why the Bible tells us to accept Jesus as a little child would is because a child's mind is open and endless; nothing is impossible to them. But as we get older and people tell us that there are things we can't do we start to get skeptical. As life goes on we have troubles and failures and as soon as we fail, that thing is crossed off our list of things that aren't impossible. We don't keep our creativity and imagination. We start to think logically and out of fact not faith. When in fact faith is what keeps us going. We need to accept and trust in Jesus just as a little kid would. Because to them nothing is impossible and for Jesus nothing is impossible. The human mind is put in a box. We can only grasp certain things. People say that there's no God because it's impossible for someone to have no beginning, no end, and to create everything. But think about this for a minute: God was here first. God created US. Not the other way around. We have no right to say whether it's impossible or not for Him to exist because if it wasn't for Him, we wouldn't exist. If we were capable of creating a person, giving it life, and that little person started to say that it's impossible for us to exist we would think, "How would you know? I was here first and I created you. Whether you exist or not, I still do. Without you I would still be alive but without me, you wouldn't be." So let's stop questioning God about the things He's capable of doing and just trust in Him. He created everything so why wouldn't He be able to change it? If we create a line of dominoes and only the first part works for us, we can go back and change the layout of the second part to make it so it all works out in the end. So can God. The Bible says that all things work out for good of those who love Him. He created everything little step in time and nothing happens by chance. He's the creater so let's give Him all the credit and put all our faith and trust in Him! :D
Matthew 18: 1-5 "At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, 'Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?' Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Whoever receives one little child like this in My name receives Me.'
If you have any questions or need any prayer, I'd be happy to help you. :) Just let me know! :D
