Becoming like
children
peeling away
the layers,
our years of
living,
our
experiences clouding
our vision of
God
The lies of
the world
layer upon
layer,
weights that
we carry,
keeping us
from truth
the simplicity
of God
Love alone,
this is the
message,
nothing more,
no less,
all of the
teachings
boiling down
to this
The guile of
those older
older than
young children,
trusting in
their own wisdom,
trying to read
more
into
everything
God calling to
us
come to me as
a child,
without reason
or guile,
simple and
humble -
sit at my feet
The lesson of
the greatest
in God’s
heavenly kingdom,
stripping away
all pretense,
coming to him
humbly
humbly as a
child
