Expecting the Kind of Authentic Love that Children Expect from God
Another childlike attribute that would be esteemed by Christ is a child's expectation to be loved, not hurt. Unless a child has been traumatized somehow, they expect to be loved and nurtured. The source of authentic ultimate love is God the Father. It is through the revelation of Father God in Christ, that one finds the source of genuine love. Believer and non-believers alike, should come in the expectation that they are loved, and that a way has been made to enter fully into that love by Jesus' ministry.
