Child like

Matthew 19:13-15 NIV

Then people brought little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples rebuked them.  Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”  When he had placed his hands on them, he went on from there.

O:
Characteristics of children and why God cares for children
*children have pure faith. 
*children are innocent and not corrupted by the world's beliefs or influences
*children are easily believing
*children do not have other motives and also not quick to judge. 
*children are simple.  Know what's good and bad and don't have gray areas

A:
Jesus said that we are to have childlike faith and only then we are capable of entering heaven.  I find it difficult that we are called to be like children especially when I've been so corrupted with the world.  The world tells us not to be gullible and to be ruthless in all our endeavors. We are not to trust anyone and to backstab if necessary. It goes against what God tells us.  And as corrupted beings we fail to listen like children. I understand why Jesus loved children so much.  They are malleable.
How do I become more childlike?

P:God forgive me for being disobedient. I know you call me to be like  a child but honestly I don't know how. By saying I should depend on  the Holy spirit seems so cliché. Help me to find a deeper meaning behind what you call us to be.  Help me to be like a child.  No judging but loving and believing.
In jesus
Amen
