A Humble Child Taste the Grace

Matthews 18:1-6

English Standard Version Chapter 18

Who Is the Greatest?

18 At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” 2 And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them 3 and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5 “Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, 6 but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.

In the passage Jesus says that in order for you to be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven you have to be as humble as a child. While reading this scripture it made me reflect on myself and my actions. Am I humble? Do I have good character traits? Am I mean for sport? All of these questions made me wonder if I’m as humble as my twin grandchildren. Niomi even though she can be full of sass shes pure at heart. She would comfort you if you cry, she would feed you if you were hungry and if your sick she would play doctor to help you get better. Rj on the other hand would just keep your company and make sure you weren't alone. He’s the one who would find a way to fix whatever is broken while reassuring you that Rj is here to save the day. They don’t want anything in return except for a hug and to know that your better. Do you do things from the heart without expecting anything in return? Are you the greatest in the kingdom?

I remember the song Jesus loves the little children all the children of the world he never separated the love, faith or trust that he have for you what he wanted to to know that you are to respect and do the right thing toward others. a Humble Child Taste the Grace. You will come across people who will do you wrong or maybe don’t like you for what ever and that all right kill them with kindness and keep moving stay in the game you will only lose if you give up and not trust the process . In Matthew 18 Jesus called a little child forward to stand besides him just like the Father did to him Jesus will always have your back Maddison trust and belive . A Humble Child Taste the Grace.

Maddison the reason Jesus want us to become like little children because children still have a sense of awe and wonder that has not been corrupted by this evil world they dream big and have big imagination and they are very trust worthy.
