I may be married and look like a responsible adult in a lot of ways I'm still just a overgrown little girl.Having the faith and perspective of a child is a must for my faith, but I have to remember to temper that with patience, which is definitely a grown up trait!

Sometimes for the gentiles, they will say things that will dismay us from God. but always uphold what is the reason for me to keep going. Seek Him first and put Him at the first place. something appears in my mind... We often watch in a children competition TV show where children are put in a certain distance then crawling to reach their mum while temptation are full beside of them. Only those who are very focus on will become the champion. something to think about: can we reach to God like a 'champion' child? Do not be distracted by earthly things and only look to Him.. how do we keep ourselves to have a childlike faith?

I will be praying for you and your family during this time, praying that you know God's peace and healing in your pain. I pray that you will also know His joy as you remember all the good times you shared with your grandmother and know that you will see her again. You will grieve and experience sorrow but don't forget to remember and celebrate her life as well. Not know her, or your relationship with her, this is what I will be praying for all of you.

A week ago the Lord led me to the scripture in Matthew 18, where the disciples are talking on "who is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?" and Jesus' response is to bring a child into their midst and remind them that if they (we) are not converted and become as little children, they (we) will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven, that we must humble ourselves as a little child so to be the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven. Lord let us have the faith of a child towards its parent, let us have that faith toward You this day!! Amen! Recently, everywhere I turn the term “child” has been coming up.

For the past week, I really felt lost and lonely. This serves a reminder that I have a God that is bigger than my problems and worries. Thank you for this devotional.
