Lately, I have been mesmerized by children, their faith in God is so simple and so pure. I would love to have faith that is so simple; however with age we become cynical and I find that we trust less. I have been thinking of my childhood, and the interesting thing is that God remains the same but it is our perception that changes.

The Bible reveals that God's heart is that we come to him with complete trust like a child. Matthew 18:3 - And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." When we come to him as a child we are not afraid of Him, trusting Him to take care of us and watch over us.

I am so very thankful that we have a Father who just longs for a close relationship with us. It might be time to put your fear aside and just try to talk to Him and see how He responds.
