I’m so glad your DH listened, mine did too.

Yes! Definitely worth it! Even my DH was amazed, and he’s not religious.
Thank you for finding that saying and that is exactly the one I meant. I was having a memory lapse and for some reason the words weren’t coming to mind. Also, well put about the mysterious ways. Everything happens for a reason…God has His reasons, even if they are hidden to us.

Exactly my sentiments, the heart behind that little boy’s passion for us to know that God understands…wow.

And great reminder on that verse, I probably don’t have the exact one you meant, but one like it (did an online search):

“He called a little child and had him stand among them. And he said: ‘I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 18:2-4).

So many of His truths are so simple, no wonder He wants our faith to be child-like in its trust. He is in control of the joystick, so He must know what’s best for me, even when I can’t understand. Yes, He works in mysterious ways, but that’s where our trust must come into play.

I hope everybody goes and listens to that radio segment. It’s short and well worth it!

Wow…that radio call was amazing. Jesus said something along the lines of (I’m sorry I’m terrible at line for line quotes) ‘if every one of you were more like these children…’ If someone knows the exact lines here please write it out. But it’s true! If only more people’s faith was like that one little boy’s! That was a humbling experience to listen to that! My faith needs work. When I hear things like that it puts everything into perspective and shows that there is still lots of good in this world! Thank you for posting that!

That’s how I feel, Leticia! Turkey anyday…it’s better than chicken!
