Like A Child



“I tell you the truth, anyone who doesn’t receive the Kingdom of God like a child will never enter it.”

—Mark 10:15 (NLT)



Heavenly Father,


Show me how to come to You like a child—that I might enter into all that You have for me, both in the here-and-now, and for eternity to come.


Show me how to come to You with childlike humility—knowing that I have nothing but my heart to bring to You and everything to gain from You.

Show me how to come to You with childlike dependence—knowing I am helpless and hopeless without You.

Show me how to come to You with childlike inquisitiveness—that I might gain knowledge and grow in wisdom.

Show me how to come to You with childlike faith—asking You for what You have promised and confident that I will receive everything I need by Your hand.

Show me how to come to You with childlike obedience—willingly going and doing that which You require of me.

Show me how to come to You with childlike gratefulness—giving thanks in all situations for all of Your goodness.

Show me how to come to You with childlike love—purely motivated and freely offered.


Show me how to come to You like a child—that I might enter into all that You have for me, both in the here-and-now, and for eternity to come.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
