Let the Children Come...

Let the Children Come...

Luke 18:16-17 ESV “ But Jesus called them to him, saying, “Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.” 

Do you ever have those moments where you reflect on childhood? 

When I think of children/childhood, these are the words that come to mind: 
Authentic, Amiable, Adventurous, and Brave. 

Children are incredibly dependent on their caretakers. This is exactly how we should be towards our Savior. Jesus is calling us to come to Him with all of our daily worries and concerns, in spirit and in truth. During this week, chase after more of Jesus authentically, with an amiable heart willing to change for His will to be done in your life. Be adventurous and brave while taking your relationship with Jesus deeper through digging into His Word of truth!  


PRAYER
Jesus, help us to know that we can run to You, no matter what the circumstances are around us. Help us to walk out child-like faith. Strengthen us to place our trust in You daily. Amen.

Some of my favorite things I didn't know I needed the first few weeks postpartum. I pray this helps one expecting mama out there (or a friend or family member looking for the latest things to help during newborn life!) to have something she didn't know she needed in the crazy of those first few weeks with your newborn!

Lord, we all find ourselves facing obstacles and challenges today. We’re all trying to figure things out and find ourselves failing and falling often. Help us to see the rocks before us today as opportunities. May we confront them today with confidence as we experience your grace and goodness in them.
