Childlike or Childish?

Last week we observed the Senate Hearings.

In today's Gospel Jesus says we must become like little children to enter the Kingdom.. So what is the difference between being "child like" and "Childish?"

The hearings supply an answer. Too much of the public spectacle showed childish behavuor. To be child like means being innocent and trusting.

To be childish means being petulent and screaming.

The woman witness seemed to be trusting the process and

 thus childlike.

Senator Lindsay Graham? What do you think, chidlike or childish?

And so we pray:

Jesus meek and humble of heart,

make our hearts

like unto thine.

 

amen
