Oh to be like a child, with no prejudices, no preconceived ideas, just acceptance and love. The Lord gave me a word not long ago. "Out of the mouths of babes. Unity for the church will come through a child's outstretched hand." The more I meditate on this the more I believe He is talking abut the Church universal and mankind in general. Children are not born with hate in their hearts. They do not know what doctrine or dogma mean and they really don't care. They just want to laugh, sing and play with as many friends as possible, no matter how different they may be. In fact they are so curious about people who are different that children's will sometimes ask what we adults consider inappropriate questions. But they just want to know why an individual is different from them. Not better or worse just different. Their questions help them understand that person better. Wouldn't help with all the conflicts both in our churches and frankly in our world if we did the same? The Lord knew that the children who came to Him would ask all kinds of questions that an adult would never dare ask. What would you ask Him? Jesus is willing and able to answer even your most childish question. Go ahead and ask.
Be Blessed and Be a Blessing,
Helen
