A Child's Prayer by Jay Bryant Ward

About This Image

"Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven." — Matthew 18:4

The faith of children is a precious thing. There is something about their innocence and purity that allows them to approach the Lord in a special way. When we witness the prayer of a child, it can be humbling to hear the faith in their words and expressions as they talk to their Heavenly Father as if He were right there in the room with them. I am grateful for the many reminders of faith, humility, and sincerity that I hear in my own children’s prayers, which is what I tried to capture in this image.
