Childlike Faith
If only we could have faith like a child, much like what Jesus said in Matthew 18:3,
2 He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. 3 And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whoever welcomes such child in my name welcomes me.
If only we would rejoice in healing like this little girl did. She prayed believing that her mouth would be healed. How many times do we as Christians pray expecting the Lord to show up and believing that our prayers would be answered? It’s this childlike faith that I strive to have daily and what a great reminder of how we should pray expecting results and rejoice in healing and answered prayers!
Pray for the Irishtown community as the fall programs come to an end and the summer programs begin. Pray that the children and adults alike will have that child like faith witnessed by the excited little girl above. Pray that they will be committed to coming to programs and most importantly fervent and faithful in serving the Lord!

Isn’t that so cool. Makes me smile (and ashamed) to see the faith and joy of that little girl. Oh, if we could only be like her. No wonder Jesus said, “let the little children come to me”.
