Soak in God's Word

I recently saw in our copy room one of our teachers for the children that come with their moms to our Women’s Bible Study on Tuesday mornings. I asked her how her ministry to the kids was going and she said “Oh, great! I love watching the children soak in God’s Word. It makes me want to be like that.”

Her comment made me want to be like that as well. Jesus says in Matthew 18:4 “Whoever then humbles himself as this child, he is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.” Our Lord encourages us to be eager to learn, ready to act, open, trusting, unashamedly acknowledging our dependence on Him – like children.

Let us be like the Tuesday morning kids who soak in the Word and like the everyday mature believers who live It out, being not just hearers but doers. (James 1:22)
