Truth is I did not sit to write yesterday; does not mean I did not sit, just no writing. And when night-time came my eyes were much too heavy and my brain too foggy. BUT this morning when my beloved read our Guidepost Calendar devotion a thought came!
Child-like and childish.
What a difference, said the Guidepost Author!
Matthew 18:3 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
and said, “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. via Matthew 18:3 NASB – and said Truly I say to you unless you – Bible Gateway.
1 Corinthians 13:11 King James Version (KJV)
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

JESUS said we must become child-like to receive His salvation. Paul said when he matured in faith, he put away childish things.
Child-like.
Innocent. Dependent, without burdens. Wide-eyed wonder.
Childish.
Selfish. Boisterous. Demanding. Eyes closed to anything but what he/she wants.
I see the difference.
Oh let me grow up to be child-like!!
Thank You, ABBA. This makes me smile and encourages me. I pray it will others. Amen and amen.
