Child-like faith

Tuesday, I watched my two girls play softball out in the front yard. It was an unusually warm day for March and my girls were taking advantage of its gift. As I watched them play in their carefree way, it was as if in their minds nothing in the world was wrong. Life was good. They were not worried about the economy, the stock market or job layoffs. They were doing what kids do best...living for the moment, trusting that their parents had everything under control and that all their needs would be met.What a true example of trust and faith. Kids are so genuine in their faith. They have no inhibitions. This is what we call childlike faith. They have complete faith in their caregivers-parents that all their needs will be supplied. There is no need to worry about the clothes they wear, the food they eat nor the home they live in. It is provided. Does this sound familiar? It should because our "Heavenly Father" promises the same for all His children. All He asks of us is to believe and receive.We too can experience this carefree life with no inhibitions if we become like little children and humble ourselves before our Lord. We must exude childlike faith. In these uncertain times we are living in, we all need to hold on to the hope we have in Jesus Christ. Then and only then can we enjoy the everyday blessings that God has for us. Become like little children and come to your Heavenly parent and let Him meet all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus!
