As a kid, I couldn’t wait to grow up. I could eat dessert whenever I wanted, could watch TV whenever I wanted and be completely in charge of myself. But now that I am a grown-up, I’m beginning to learn that growing up in God’s Kingdom is actually the whole aging process in reverse. When Jesus says, “Become like a child,” it is not something that happens in an instant. It’s a process. When we are born, we must begin growing up. When we are born again, we must begin growing down.
