Become As Little Children

 Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven - Matthew 18:3.

             We cannot enter the kingdom of heaven unless we change ourselves and become like little children. The one who humbles himself as a little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven - Matthew 18:4.

                  Let us become humble like a little child. Therefore, humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you - 1 Peter 5:5-7. God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. Blessed are the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven - Matthew 5:3.

                 God also wants us to have a childlike faith and purity in heart. For we live by faith, not by sight - 2 Corinthians 5:7. Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God - Matthew 5:8. But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven” - Matthew 19:14.                                                    

PRAYER: Dear Lord, We surrender and humble ourselves like a little child before You. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
