All in Childlike
This morning our thought is in being not only the children of God, but going one step further and having the heart of a child; or being childlike. Jesus tells us this directly in scripture.
Have you ever faced a problem and prayed for God to reveal His will to you, to guide you through it, and when He spoke, and then lead you to a place where you felt comfortable again, did you tell Him thank you and go about your merry way alone? This happens all of the time to believers, but the Lord doesn’t want to be the taxi that you call in a pinch, He wants to be your personal automobile that you depend on to take you everywhere you go.
Is studying the Bible and theology something that you do so that you can mine the truth from it? Do you read in order to gain an understanding of God’s embedded secrets? Are you seeking the title of “Bible Scholar?” If this is you let me encourage you to continue your studies, but remember to approach them in childlike fashion. Bring the heart and wonder of a child to the effort. Because God reveals his hidden wisdom from all but the children of faith... the childlike.
