Childlike

     I love how the presence of children changes an atmosphere. I know that the presence of children can make some folks uncomfortable. But then, I think why?

     When children are around, I'm reminded of innocence, of awe, of wonder. When children are around, I find a lot more things to laugh about. When children are around, I'm reminded of the kindness and protective strength of God.

     Many times children are a ball of unrestrained energy. But at the same time, they are not yet overcome with useless insecurities. They are always trusting the best in people. Much like Love does.

     But there's something about being around children, that makes us as adults want to become better people. And to me, that is one of the most extraordinary things that the presence of children ushers in.

Wisdom's Knocking:

Childishness is synonymous with immaturity. But Child-likeness is synonymous with freedom.
