Faith Like a Child: Embracing God’s Kingdom
Discover the beauty of childlike faith, humility, and welcome as Jesus teaches us to trust and receive God’s kingdom with open hearts.
📖 Introduction
Welcome to this 3-day journey of exploring faith like a child. In the Gospels, Jesus emphasizes the importance of childlike trust and humility in entering God's kingdom. Children are often seen as vulnerable and lacking understanding, yet Jesus uses them as prime examples of the qualities we must emulate. Their simple trust, openness, and welcoming nature remind us to approach God without pride or doubt.
Throughout these studies, you'll find encouragement to let go of cynicism and complexity, and to embrace a faith that is genuine, trusting, and humble. God’s kingdom is not reserved for the learned or the mighty, but for those who receive it like a child receiving a gift. We will reflect on Jesus’ interactions with children, His teachings about faith, and the heart attitude required to truly belong in God’s family.
As you engage with these passages and devotionals, consider how your faith might be renewed by simplicity and total dependence on God. May this time refresh you to welcome God’s kingdom fully and freely!
