Becoming like a Child

Kids Arguing:


"I don't like you! I won't play with you again!"

So they played apart.
After a few minutes, they played again and shared toys.

WHY?

Because for kids, happiness is more important
than pride.

Jesus said, "Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven."

Why? Little children are:

  • Forgiving
  • Loving
  • Humble
  • Tender
They Don't:

  • Hold Grudges
  • Have much pride
  • Care about how they look when they really want something
Even so, we should forgive quickly, love generously, humble ourselves, get rid of pride that would get in the way of us getting what we need from God, and stay tender hearted.
