Check out gypsy mama. It's Friday again. :o)
Today's post brought to you by the word: wonder. Five minutes of hemorrhaging at the keyboard begins, now...
I wonder at the wonder in my children. It changes as they grow older. I wonder what I was like when I wondered like that.
"See the moon, Claire??"
"It's in the sky!!" She smiles.
"Yes, it's in the sky!" I smile at her smiling.
"I want to catch it!!" She holds her little arms up high, towards the moon, miles away.
When did I stop reaching? Do I wonder so much that I stop reaching, or do I not wonder enough?
Walk with any toddler outside for a few minutes, and you will see there is so much more to the world that you remembered.
Isn't a sense of wonder related to hope? If there are good things to wonder about, surely there is hope to accompany that.
Is He sad when His children don't wonder at what He has placed on this earth, in their hearts?
True wonder leads to action. Learn more, discover more, reach out more. I bet that moon isn't as far away as it seems. Little one, she told me so. :o)
