With
gladness and simplicity faith keeps us from wandering away from our Shepherd
our God.
As a
child has faith in their parents for no other reason then they are their
parent, this is all that our Lord desires of us.
The strength of a child like faith that
requires no scientific foundation, that does not have to be within human
knowledge, faith that brings joy and causes the spirit to soar just with the
knowledge of it.
Faith
that requires only that we believe.
Faith that keeps us safe, allowing the Shepherd to keep us from harm.
Faith the allows us through the gates of heaven.
By faith we are carried in the arms of our Saviour
into heaven.
The one who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him. John 10:2-3
Faith is
not a set of rules
Faith is
knowing without seeing who we Believe with gladness and simplicity.
