WE ALL ARE HIS LITTLE CHILDREN


Don't you just love it when we are reading the scriptures, and what we read stays on our mind, and it seems like the Holy Spirit starts using it to teach us? Last night I was reading about the little children that came the the Master. You may know that story. When I got up it still was on my mind. I just started to write down the things that was being put in my mind. I will share it with you.

Don't offend one of the little ones in the Master. Those the ones that are young in their understanding.Youth in understanding, doesn't mean no growth at all, it's just that, one young.

If in ones life of walking with the Father, and the Master, one had to have everything perfect, then no one would be heard. He takes us where we are in His word, and goes from there. Diligence, and fortitude are deciding factors as to if it is time to move on to the next step. For you see in these, the heart is known. All the 'truth' in the world will do no good, without a heart of love to worship Him. It is not the sacrifice in ones life to make sure all the i's are dotted, and the t's crossed, but loving with a pure heart. No one has to be short of this. They make that deciding factor.

A child of His will have His Spirit in them, and will have what is called fruits in their life. Galatians 5:22-23. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsufering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness. gentleness, self-control. How good it would be to be like this all the time!

We see our Fathers love in His children also like it says in 1 Cor. 13:4-8. Love suffers long, and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks not evil; does not rejoice in sin, but rejoices in truth; bears all things, believes all things, endures all thins. Love never fails. Think of all the problems caused by these very things not being done. If we have this love in our lives, oh my, how different our outlook on everything is. The way we react to others would be different. This is the Fathers love in us, going out to His creation. On my own I can not be love like this. With my Father's Spirit in me, this is how I will act. I am so glad, as the human me can not love like this. We can know one of His Children though by these things in them. He is love.
Can you imagine how hurt He is when we are not kind to another one of His children.

It may be with love, that others see tolerance of a different understanding, and would be more willing to listen when us speak. intolerance of how another person understands different than us, is a terrible in justice. Through a willing heart to listen to them, and how they understand things, they may be willing to listen to us. In our lives we do have to remember, that what another person understands as to how they should worship, it is to the Father they are doing, or not doing it to. Maybe they are young in understanding. We need to be careful, just as if they were a baby we were trying to explain something to. We all can understand just so much. It is our Father that opens up our eyes to see more.

We are our Fathers ears to hear with, heart to love with, arms to hug with, hands to help others with. He loves others through us, by His Spirit dwelling in us. We are not own our own trying to be loving unselfishly, we have His help. So next time we see a newborn babe in the Word, or an older person in the word that seems to still be young in truth, lets just see another child of our Father. Sweet, precious, and adorable in His eyes. Words, and actions can be priceless to someone, or the can be the last straw to make them fall away.
