Child-like faith

Well, one more day to church camp.

Glorious time of fellowship! Kinda excited to go church camp. Really looking forward to it.

This is the first time I can actually ask God to speak to me. The past youth camps have always been action and more action! A nice refreshing change. =)

This time, I would have the time and space to ponder and meditate over His word and sit in His presence! Yes!

Well, yesterday was a great time of service and missions meeting.

Don't know why, but last night as I was doing my Quiet Time, God reminded me of child-like faith. At that moment, the face of one of the youth flashed through my mind.

He would always catch my eye. Don't ask me who, you go figure. I'd always see him at the altar kneeling and pouring his heart out to the Lord. Such purity and earnesty.

He's more hungry than some of us older christians; not comparing, don't get me wrong.

When I look at him, I only see a heart fully yielded to the Lord.

The second thing that went through my mind was a picture of my heart. I just felt God removing all the layers of hardeness, and there appeared a 'fresh' heart. Hah.

I guess that sums it all up. A simple, untainted love for God.

Help me Lord, because I find it so hard to say yes when You ask me to. Give me a child-like heart, because all You ask is simple trust.
