Read a book on this very topic when I was 15. Keen, eager to serve and love God, and willing to believe anything books told me. Not too sure how much is actually biblical and how much is prosperity or other forms of false teaching, but it motivated me to be more of a child around God - which is a good thing I suppose.
These are notes I took on the book in year 10. Still blows my mind that I was reading and taking notes on books like these when I was in year 10. I am not as awesome now.
Living A Child Like Faith
Pray Like A Child
Jesus is your best friend. Talk to him like one.
Don't Rely On Words
Children don't know many words, but their actions are so honest that they don't need to.
Ask for Help
Childlike faith comes from admitting and asking God for help
Embrace Ordinariness
Childlike faith is for ordinary people
Don't stop Playing With God
Not very profound. But still helped me shape my attitudes around God. He stopped becoming this big old man in the sky, and became a very real friend to me in year 10. Sometimes I still forget to treat him like one.
