As Children...

I can remember when I was five years old the first time I picked up a flower and how I was marveled... It was a pink hibiscus. Every child has that feeling the first time they admire a flower.

May we never lose this enchantment with life that every child has. "The Kingdom of God belongs to such as children" said Jesus.

May we to be always in awe and amazement with the Lord's creation, the miracles are around us.

“Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 18.3)

We need to become like children again. We need to bring back the awe and excitement at the rain, the wind blowing to the tree, the beautiful flowers appearing out of the ground.

Here are a video on this very topic. Watch it and be reminded: "Stand in awe… In wonder…. Be excited about all of the miracles around you" (Emily R.).

Dwell On Beautiful Things

May we dwell on beautiful things and rejoice in the Lord:

-"Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things". (Philippians 4.8)

May we do not focus on negative and impure things, complaining, gossiping and others bad stuff, but only in the honorable and beautiful.
