Jesus Said  you must be as a child to enter the kingdom of heaven. He also says that if any one should cause a little one to stumble that it would be better for him to have a millstone tied around his neck and thrown into the sea. So God loves children. Why? Well there are a few reasons I think. One would be that they are so simple. They are full of questions, they have an imagination. They are free to express how they feel  even though some times it doesn't make sense to us adults. When they worship, it isn't as if they are forced to. They aren't faking it and it isn't peer pressure. Some times it sounds a bit chaotic. But It does say "Make a joyful noise." so there!

Donna K would, I think be the best example for having the heart of a child. She never acts her age spiritually  and physically. And she will tell you "I will nevah act my age!" Look at her in the gatherings. She is constantly shouting, not just saying, shouting her "Amens!" When she has something to sat she says it with boldness(Again shouting out her praises)

 I mentioned before about Children having a simple faith. They know that God is God, Jesus is their Lord and Savior, and that they should obey Him. What? No Doctrine?! Yup.  Oh that we all could be that way.
  I remember the Story that Pastor Daniel told us about that one man that went looking for someone that could heal his daughter. After passing through many villages, he finally came to a man that told him about Jesus. Overjoyed, he went through each of the villages he had already gone through proclaiming that he had found the Saviour. He didn't know the names of the apostles or the twelve disciples. he didn't know how many books there were in the bible. All he knew was Jesus and that was enough.
