"and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven."Matthew 18:3
Hebrew is the only language in the world that was completely dead as an everyday tongue and then resurrected from the dead to become a living language after thousands of years.
The founder of modern day Hebrew, Eliezer Ben-Yehuda was captivated by the idea of restoring Hebrew as a spoken language, which at the time was strictly a written language.
According to Ben-Yehuda, language must begin in the heart of a child and thus trained his first-born son in an exclusive Hebrew environment. He believed this was a very important symbolic event for the future of the revival of the Hebrew language.
He believed by training his child only in Hebrew that a complete revival of the language was possible! And thus started training children in Hebrew at schools throughout Israel.
The irony is that it was children who were born in Israel, who went to school learned Hebrew first -- since the adults didn't know Hebrew, and it was children that taught their parents.
There is a profound lesson in this -- as Jesus said, "unless you are changed and become like little children --you cannot enter the Kingdom of Heaven."
If you want to speak the language of Heaven, you must learn it as a child would learn! Just as little children are open, believing, humble, lighthearted and not worried about the cares of this world -- so those walking in the Kingdom should walk!
Brothers & Sisters, learn to trust your Heavenly FATHER -- and realize while the world's issues seem gigantic -- they truly aren't in His hands! He simply wants us to learn a profound lesson -- trust as a child would!
UNDERSTAND THE KINGDOM AS A CHILD!
