Week 5: Become as Little Children

This week, I chose the topic about becoming as little children.

In Matthew 18:4 Jesus says to humble ourselves as a little children.  A little child knows very little compared to adults.  They always ask questions and seek truth and answers to them.  We also know little when compared to the Lord’s knowledge.   Because of that, we should become humble, acknowledge that fact and also should seek truth and wisdom like a little child would. 

The Lord wants to become like little children by being Submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord sees fit to inflict upon us, just like a child submits to his parents.  A child is all of these things, but sadly we grow out of them just to end up being chastised back to that.  By changing and becoming like a child, we can become better disciples of the Lord and we will be better people in general.  I know that if we make the effort and change to become like a child, we will be blessed for doing so, especially for those of us who have pride issues.
