SABRINA
There is nothing I enjoy more than simply WATCHING my grandchildren. Children have the ability to go with the moment; their imaginations seizing the opportunity of whatever little joys they happen upon. Nothing is too small or insignificant for their wonder. It can be as simply as a stick turned snake, a mud puddle to splash, or leaves blowing in the breeze. When I watch them, I am reminded that PLAY is their WORK.
The heart of a child seems to embody all that God finds best about humankind. Maybe that is why David likened himself to a child in Psalm 131. What greater image of contentment is there than that of a young child resting with complete trust on the shoulder of the one who loves them best?
As adults we often lose that wonderment, so caught up in the day to day struggles that we forget that the exact SAME joys are available for us - we just don’t take the time to recognize and enjoy it. Go today, and see the world through the eyes of a child - a child of God!
