"Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven."(Matthew 18:3)
Children often flocked to Jesus. They loved Him! Why? Because He spent time with them and listened to them. He accepted them as they were. Remember the time the disciples tried to send the children away, and Jesus told them to suffer(allow) the children to come unto Him and to forbid them not, for such is the Kingdom of Heaven.
Our scripture says: "Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven." We must come to Jesus in simple childlike faith, if we are to know Him as our personal Savior. There is no other way. We often feel the children should follow our lead, and certainly they should obey their parents and respect their elders. But when it comes to matters of faith, we must become as one of them.
