The First Mission: To Become a Child

Saturday, March 6, 2021

The first thing Messiah said to His disciples was, 'Follow Me.' If you call yourself a disciple, this must be the will of your life. A disciple follows his or her Rabbi. To be godly, you have to follow God. How do you follow Messiah? What is the first thing Messiah did in His ministry? Messiah became human - specifically, a little child. He became a little child so you also could become a little child. It's one thing to be a child. It's another thing to become a little child. Anyone can be a little child. But only God and those who follow Him can become a little child. God emptied Himself to become a little child and He had to learn how to be a little child. You also need to do the same and learn how to be a little child, to trust again, to be humble again, to be lighthearted again, and to let another carry your burdens. God became a little child. And that's a miracle - so you also could know the miracle of becoming a little child again. Become little again. Become a child. It's only natural, when you follow God.
