I look forward to connecting with old ministry friends, making new ones, and learning even more acronyms. :p
Being here at Walt Disney World reminds me of one of my favourite videos that I originally posted back in May:
I've written before on child-like faith, and how children remind us that we are to be child-like (but not childish) in the way we pray. After all, Mark 10:15 says "Truly I tell you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will never enter it."
This scripture reminds us that whomever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will never enter it. Now that doesn’t mean that we should all start sucking our thumbs, wearing diapers, crawling around from place to place, and crying and whining until we get what we want...that's childish. But God has set aside the Kingdom of God for the childlike...for those who are loving enough to trust and obey Him, and humble enough to depend on Him.
My kids teach me what it means to have a child-like faith. Because they are obedient, innocent, and curious.
See what I mean in this video...and in particular pay attention to Jacob, our middle child. The only background you need to know is that our kids thought we were going to spend our Spring Break in Seattle.
