TO BIG FOR GOD
(Mar 10:13) And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
(Mar 10:14) But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
(Mar 10:15) Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
(Mar 10:16) And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
JESUS LOVES CHILDREN
Jesus in his ministry came in contact with many people Kings, rulers, priests, rich men, etc…. but none new the bosom of the Almighty like children.
Is God prejudice of old people? No, God loves all mankind but the ones that are the closest to him are those that know him and believe him and he said that none believed like those of little children.
I BELIEVED
I can remember as a little child hearing a preacher in church one service. He said, Jesus may come back tonight ! Every one else may have slept well that night but I did not. I was looking for Jesus to come through the clouds at any moment and I was so afraid I was not ready to go. Maybe others in my house were old enough to know better but I had the faith that what the preacher said was going to come to pass. It is funny to talk about now but eight hours is along time to set in your bed in the dark waiting for the God of the universe to come crashing in your window to judge you for all your bad deeds.
Just imagine what our lives would be like to day if we had that kind of faith as adults.
(Mar 10:15) Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
TO BIG FOR GOD
Remember when you first came to God compelled by the Holy Ghost you were found in sin and conceived by grace and mercy. Remember your first breath of the life everything look so much brighter and you had hope and faith in nothing else but in Christ. I remember the feeling of the great arms of God around me and the voice of truth whisper in my heart you can be anything you want to in Christ.
I remember my first steps in Christ. I fell so hard time and time again and He just kept picking me up over and over again until I could stand up for my self. We would walk together and talk together and I would ask him questions as we communed in the word and in prayer. I remember the hopes and dreams and the unwavering faith that if Christ said healing was possible then lets pray , if my Father in Heaven said I could say to this mountain be ye removed then I was willing to tackle the biggest mountain, but just as many children grow up to their teenage years they are to smart for old Mom and Dad so do many Christians grow up spiritually speaking until they are JUST TO BIG FOR THE KING OF GLORY AND THE ALMIGHTY GOD. Funny isn’t that we could stand before the all knowing God and say are you sure? God I don’t think it is going to happen just like you said it would. God why don’t we do this or this or this. Church I am telling you when you think you know better then God we you think you are wiser then the old preacher, when you don’t trust the word of God and prayer is not important any more than church you are just TO BIG FOR YOUR OWN GOOD.
(Mar 10:16) And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
LETS HUMBLE OURSELVES AGAIN AND FORGET THE WISDOM OF THE WORLD AND CRAWL BACK INTO THE ARMS OF THE ALL KNOWING AND ALL LOVING GOD. DON’T BE TO BIG FOR GOD.
