You were right, I missed these...I get confused sometimes...there are so many threads here!
If you don't mind I don't want to talk about ways I could be shy...it's like looking back in the rear view mirror...I like looking ahead at the more positive.
Wonder doesn't mean questions for me, per se...more as wonder in how intricate something is and amazing or extraordinary...usually in beauty, you know.
You are right 'allowing' is a big attribute of children...and myself. Ha.
I am also very big on liquid minerals...I keep my empties to show people the bottle, even.
I have turned on many to minerals!
Freedom from so many things is a gift...freedom to heal, yes, part of allowing,in other words, a freedom from blocking and resisting.
Freedom from judging others is a biggy.
Live and let live...knowing each person is where they are supposed to be ...trusting God
for them as He draws them closer to Him in what ever way He chooses.

How many of these qualities did you choose to keep & continue...
Please note:via also scriptures, this discussion is for sharing... how well we are doing. Why?
Serve... to CHEER Lead... each other.
well I love it .. I'm officially childish.. I just love it !
in my discussion "Please, let's Focus on & discuss John 13:35 to us God's children" I just shared
God/Christ's LOVE-letter to the world, including us each.
Recall
that God says in John 1:12-13: 12 Yet to all who did receive him (Christ), to those who believed in his name, he gave the right
to become children of God— 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God."
What are the many, many successful qualities of 'LITTLE' children ?
Not only has Jesus become his own father but his brethren [believers] have become his children...

Beyond which, I invite you to develop a personal relationship with the entity called "LOVE" ....
in His abilities to serve us as God, & as Jesus in the flesh, plus as the Holy Spirit.
Further
in my OP I gave this scripture in John 1:12-13: 12 Yet to all who did receive him (Christ), to those who believed in his name, he gave the right
to become children of God— 13 children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God."
God, as Jesus, invites us to "Become AS a *little* child", iow childLike

When the "LOVE" entity in John 1:12-13 says:
"children born not of natural descent"
that pretty much makes your mentioned 46 list irrelevant (other than faith) since the "LOVE" entity stated:
"Flesh gives birth to flesh"
which reaffirms:
"that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time."
"We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all."
"Indeed, there is no one on earth who is righteous, no one who does what is right and never sins."

.... and I would like to add that little children are humble which means they are teachable.
How may adults are open-minded enough to be teachable.
Or, are some adults so open-minded that their brains have figuratively fallen out.
FWIW, and IMHO the thread is about in some way trying to achieve a "Christ-like" life of loving God and neighbor in the way a child loves with total innocence and total trust. assuming that one have respect and admiration for Christ and His teachings (regardless of what His "true" nature is---or is not......)
in the peace of Christ.
How can it be 'regardless' when teaching lies could be involved.
If it is Not teaching what the Bible really teaches ( religious truth - John 17:17 ) then it is teaching a lie.
Satan, according to Jesus' teaching, is the father ( life giver ) of the lie - John 8:44
To me, Christ-like love ( John 13:34-35 ) involves having the same self-sacrificing love that Jesus had for others.
Jesus would Not have sacrificed 'religious truth' for an un-truth but told it just as it is at John 10:36 B.
Even the demons knew the truth at Luke 4:41 believing Jesus to be the Christ the Son of God.

assume you think becoming "a little child of Christ" and having "sacrificial love" is indeed a good thing according to your conception of Christ and if that's indeed true it's also rather probable that at least some of those with a possibly DIFFERENT conception of Christ might still think exactly the same. for the purpose of the discussion isn't that a GOOD and holy thing if they give water to the thirsty, feed the hungry, clothe the naked (Matt. 25 35-40), or forgive others as they have been forgiven (Ephesians 4:32) and "walk humbly with...God" (Micah 5:8)? OR because they are "wrong" in their theology and you "right" no matter how much love of Christ they may profess and may ACTUALLY do is not enough---is the "perfect" really the enemy of the "good" in the eyes of a merciful and loving God who as Christ said would surely REWARD someone even if they just gave a cup of water to one of His followers (Mark 9:41)?
in the peace of Christ.
