Blog from Matthew


Exodus 4:1-5:21
Matthew 18:1-20
Psalm 22:19-31
Proverbs 5:15-21

Matthew Chapter 18
"He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. And he said: "Truly I tell you, unless you change and become
like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."


What does this quote mean? To me, it means a lot of things. Becoming like a child means relying on others to do things instead of
doing them out of your own power. To us, that means relying on God. Becoming like a child means becoming humble. Becoming like
a child means becoming innocent - and behaving innocently.

Does becoming like a child mean rejoicing? Children seem to rejoice a lot. Children seem to rejoice over small things. The Bible 
tells us to rejoice.

What about "childlike faith"? Have you heard of that before? Believing God when you don't understand. Believe God can do anything
even though you can't grasp how. Of course, you can't really understand it - the important thing is you believe.
