My brain has been investigating other areas of my body to store bits of knowledge. It cannot hold all of the bones and their tubercles (thanks to human anatomy class). My mind is a night sky exploding with firework thoughts: lemon muffins to bake for Gospel Church ... a distant, unplanned date night with Luke ... the enigmatic future. I feel like I don't have the time to play, to be carefree. I suddenly became an adult! A creature who feeds responsibility and calls planning a pastime. What was my life like before I had a job? What did I think about before scheduling my time and sorting to-do lists?
I want to become more like a child in the way I relate to and think about God. I want to spend more time gazing up at the sky, wondering what He is doing that very moment. I want to talk to Him about my dreams, what He wants to do next, and what He is excited about. Can I receive the kingdom of God like a child? With open arms and a heart that does not think to hold back?
