Faith is the foundation of our walk with Him. In fact, without faith, we can&#8217;t please God.<\/p>\n<p>Hebrews 11:6 (NKJV) 6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.<\/p>\n<p>Childlike faith is what God asks of us, but what does that mean. What <i>is<\/i> childlike faith?<\/p>\n<p>Having faith like a child means that we give someone 100% trust. We don&#8217;t question them. We don&#8217;t doubt them. We know that if they say they will do something, then they will do it. No questions asked.<\/p>\n<p>Children trust parents unconditionally, unless they have been given a reason not to do so. When a child jumps into their daddy&#8217;s arms, they fully expect and know that he will catch them. They don&#8217;t stop and think about it. They don&#8217;t question whether he will catch them or not. They just jump.<\/p>\n<p>And so it is with our Father in heaven. He wants us to trust Him with everything about our lives. The little things <i>and<\/i> the big things. The critically important and the not-so-important.<\/p>\n<p>Jesus Himself said that unless we become like children, we can&#8217;t enter into the kingdom of God.<\/p>\n<p>Matthew 18:2-3 (NKJV) 2 Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, 3 and said, \u201c<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>He is God Almighty, Jehovah Jireh. He is the Alpha and the Omega, who was, and is, and is to come.<\/p>\n<p>Trust Him with everything.
