The purity and untouched innocence of young children allows them to enjoy and manifest the presence of God while they remain with these qualities, even in this collapsed world. Unfortunately, over time this innocence is lost, and this has happened to all of us.
In Matthew 18:3 (KJV), Jesus of Nazareth stated that the kingdom of heaven cannot come to us without the qualities of the likeness of a child. It is then imperative for all His followers to regain their lost innocence.
To achieve this, we need to fight against the conditioning and cultural domestication we have been subjected to by our materialistic and atheist world. We need to recover our authentic being and our spiritual nature.
Total surrender and trust in God is certainly a step in the right direction.
Then, our heavenly Father will show us the way.
