Do You Have Childlike Faith?
Please contact us if you have questions or if you need some encouragement.
Having childlike faith is a beautiful and wondrous thing. It brings back memories of a time when the world seemed so full of possibilities and miracles were around every corner. As children, we didn’t question or doubt; instead, we embraced the wonders of God with wide-eyed fascination. Our faith was pure and innocent, untainted by overthinking or intellectualizing. I believe that having childlike faith makes it easier to see God’s hand at work in our lives. It allows us to simplify our understanding of Him, stripping away the complexities that sometimes cloud our minds as adults. Instead of relying on a vast array of memorized facts, I choose to embrace a faith that even a child could comprehend.
Childlike faith teaches me that God loves me unconditionally; He demonstrated this love by sending His Son to die for me on the cross. It reminds me that Jesus triumphed over death itself, rising from the grave to conquer sin and offer eternal life to all who accept Him as their Lord and Savior. Of course, there is still much more depth and knowledge available about God’s incredible love and grace. Yet, childlike faith encourages simplicity rather than overwhelming complexity. It keeps my focus on what truly matters – knowing that God loves us deeply and sent His Holy Spirit to guide us through life’s journey. So I ask you now: Do you have this same childlike faith? Or are you perhaps struggling in some other way with your own beliefs? ~ Bill Greguska

There is, therefore, now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. Those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit.
Romans 1:16 ESV
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
