What does it mean to have faith like a child?

Answered in 1 source

Having faith like a child means trusting God's Word unconditionally and humbly.

Faith like a child involves a simple, unwavering trust in God's promises, free from skepticism. Children naturally believe what they are told without questioning the complexities of the world around them. This is illustrated in the sermon through the example of Abraham, who believed God's promise without evidence. Jesus calls us to this same kind of faith and humility when He states, 'Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven' (Matthew 18:3). A childlike faith not only involves trust but also an acknowledgment of our lowliness and need for God's grace, reflecting a heart that is open to receive His word.
