To be like a child
March 10th, 2010 by Doris
Just thinking about the conversation I have with Emily a while ago… when an adult is asked to listen and follow certain thing, the first question he might ask is: why should I? Can I not go the way I like? This is simply an expression of a fashion. Everyone could have different opinions and what if I have an inspiration? To some extend I agree and it is good to have different opinions as this is how new ideas is formed and things can be improved. However, I strongly believe that a guideline is always needed and knowing to say/do the right thing at the right time or being obedient is important. Otherwise, we will never know where and how to begin, unity will be never formed and the mission will never be directional. Then, we compared with a child. When a child is asked to do something, he follows without asking any question. He just simply accept what he was told is the right thing to do. Sometimes, I think God wants us to be like a child, to think simple and to act simple and not to manipulate His words with our so called intelligence.
