As a Child
“the heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s; but the earth He has
given to the children of men.” Psalm 115:16
A little girl was riding on a train for the first time with
her mother. She was looking through the window with eyes opened wide in wonder.
She would say, “Look, Mama, cows! Look, Mama, horses! Oh, Mama, houses!” Being
a bit embarrassed, the mother turned to those sitting nearby and said, “My
daughter still thinks that everything is wonderful.”
Children have an innocence and faith that adults so often
lose. As we grow older, we become discontent, resentful, negative, and
unappreciative. No wonder God tells us to be as little children!
Thought for the Day: Do you have a
negative attitude Or are you filled
with wonder and appreciation?
