Just like a little child
A little
child totally depends on his mother, freely and without hesitation approaches her
to be embraced, to be loved, to be cared for, to be fed etc. The child’s total
faith is entrusted unto his mother, without any questions asked, knowing that
she is there at all times.
The
mother, from the child’s point of view is everything to him, is the source of
his life, is the protector of his life, is everything. Isn’t the mother like a ‘god’ for the child?
This
same enthusiasm of the child towards his mother, is an example of who Jesus is
for us. Jesus, the Son of God, who died on the cross, is our Saviour. He loves
us, He cares for us, He feeds us with His spiritual food. Do we have the same
enthusiasm towards Jesus, when compared to a child’s enthusiasm towards his
mother? Are we excited to meet Jesus, to be with Him and listen to what He has to
say to us? If only our enthusiasm and excitement towards Jesus were like the
child’s enthusiasm towards his mother, then our life would be fulfilled with
His love and daily grace.
In
Unity,
