b'In the Gospels, Jesus repeatedly says children are part of His kingdom. Can you work hard to get into God\\u2019s kingdom? No. Can you be good enough? No. Can you pay lots of money? No, but that\\u2019s what some grown-ups would like to do. Jesus says, That\\u2019s not the way. To get into My kingdom you have to get down lower \\u2014 humble yourself \\u2014 and trust Me like a child would. Some claim a small child\\u2019s belief in God doesn\\u2019t count. But that\\u2019s not the case! In 2 Timothy 3:14-15, Paul said to Timothy, \\u201ccontinue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, [pause] and how from infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.\\u201d True, children can\\u2019t understand everything they\\u2019re taught. So? There is nothing wrong about a child\\u2019s inadequate concepts. First Corinthians 13:11 says: \\u201cWhen I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child\\u201d (NIV). The Bible doesn\\u2019t criticize a child\\u2019s way of thinking. The One who made us knows us. May we all become like little children in our unwavering trust in God, confidence in His promises, and love for the Savior who died for us. This is Luis Palau.'
