In a little child are other qualities that every disciples should have. As a child is eager to learn, so must a Christian have a teachable spirit > 1 Peter 2:2 As newborn babies, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby

At one time the disciples asked Jesus to teach them how to pray (Luke 11:11). May we, too, have the spirit that wants to do God's will!

A little child is controlled by the parents, and so a disciple is obedient to Christ.

psalm 27:11 Teach me the way, O LORD

A child does not have the experience nor wisdom to do things his own way; he needs one to point out the way to him.

Proverb 14:12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end therefore are the way of death.

A child trusts his parents. He believes what they tell him and trusts them to take care of him, to supply his needs and to protect him.

A Christian depends upon God, believe God's Word, and trust in God to supply all he needs

Philippians 4:19 My God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Can you think of any other qualities of a little child that the disciples of Jesus should have?

nice relating a ways of a child and a christian..thanks bro abiye

Thanks abiye once again for your inspirational and motivational mesaages
We are not there yet but we are getting it

We really have to become like children so we can grow in the lord

When a child is depressed,down, or is in need, he or she cries to his parents for help.
So those christains cry to God for help in times of distress. Thanks abiye for the enlightment.

Jesus said in matthew 18:3

And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven

The scripture gave us the importance of children and why we have to behave like the in the gospel according to Matthew in chapter 19 from verse 13 to 15. I would love to lay emphasis on verse 14. "Jesus said, let the children come to me and do not stop them because the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these. Now let's go to the gospel according to mark in chapter 10 verse 15 tells us that who ever does not receive the kingdom of heaven as a child can not enter into it. And so also says in the Luke chapter 18 verse 17.
