Jesus said
to His Disciples, "I tell you,
whoever does not accept the Kingdom
of God like a little child will never
enter it"
Mark
10:15
An open, searching mind, a ready
obedient, loving heart: these are
the means of progress and perfection
in the Father's world. And I, with
Our Holy Spirit, am ceaselessly
at work in all committed to the
Father's will and loving purpose.
Unless the child of man desires
and seeks to know the truth about
the Father's world, with power and
understanding to live and work in
faithfulness to that which he discovers,
he cannot enter in the Father's
Kingdom. And if he does not enter,
how can he begin to know the King,
or experience the blessings of the
Kingdom?
The child receives the father's
love in trust and confidence, knowing
that all will be well as he continues
to obey and do those things the
father asks. So does he grow strong
and healthy, taking on as he progresses
responsibilities for his brothers
as the need arises. Problems and
pains he encounters, but these he
knows are but temporary experiences
to be offered to the father's love
and resolution.
