The Bible's message about Jesus is life changingCity on a Hill Evangelical Church
What does trust in God look like?
When Jesus wanted to show what trusting God looks like, he pointed to children.
In Mark 10:13-15 we read:
People were bringing little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them, but the disciples rebuked them. When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it. (Mark 10:13-15)
What do you see when you look at the cute little face of a baby?
Maybe this is your world right now. Perhaps that face reminds you of sleepless nights, mum guilt (or dad guilt!), the relentless desire to just have some time for yourself or an adult conversation.
For the grandparents among us, perhaps it’s a complicated combo of wonderful joy mixed with the weariness of being “presumed upon” as the reliable babysitter.
