It is so simple, yet so hard! Why? We make it that way!!! Mark 10

Hello everyone! God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!  Jesu Jevu!
   Do you ever wonder, just sit and wonder?  Think about things, think about God and the beauty He created, AND we have made a mess of?
Salvation - it is so difficult for so many people to understand; yet so simple to acquire.  It is a gift, a present, and all we need to do is accept it.
If we would just go to Christ Jesus simple and pure and accept.  It is so easy.  The disciples fussed at the people who brought the little children, yet Jesus stopped them and said, "Let the little children come to Me".  Don't stop them.  Let them come.
 
    Then Jesus says that "anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”  Now why would he say this?  Because a child has an unfailing and unwavering faith.  They have an open heart and truly believe; no strings attached, just total belief.
    Are we only able to accept Christ as a child?  NO!  But the child-like faith is how we should believe.  Never questioning, never wavering, never doubting, just believe.  Unfortunately as adults we tend to "THINK TOO MUCH" and try to figure out or analyze all things in our life.  Many times there is not a reasonable explanation why something happens - we just have to accept it on faith.  Like my friend in Colorado who has "terminal stomach cancer" and the doctor told him to go home sell everything, and enjoy his last few months.  Five (5) years later he was still kicking and the doctors really did not understand.  You and I should!
   Miracles are alive and well in the 21st Century, in "modern" America and the world.  When we do accept Christ, unconditionally as a child, look what happens next.  We will be in the arms of Christ and blessed------blessed by God.  Wow!  As they say in East Texas: "It don't get no gooder dan dis!"

Jesus Blesses Little Children (Mark 10)

13 Then they brought little children to Him, that He might touch them; but the disciples rebuked those who brought them. 14 But when Jesus saw it, He was greatly displeased and 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. 15 Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”. 16 And He took them up in His arms, laid His hands on them, and blessed them.
Love you all. Soli Deo Gloria
