Children Can Teach Us So Much!
By Mark Flippo
The sweetness and innocence of children! I have seen many a strong rough man brought to tears by a new grand baby! Babies, toddlers and children have something unique about them. Their innocence, they have no hatred, no anger about others. They just accept you for who you are. They may shy away until they get to know you. They learn to naturally love and trust. How many dads have you seen with a toddler tossing them up in the air and then catching them. Of course the baby is laughing. Or blowing on a baby's tummy.
It take so little to make them smile or laugh. It would be nice if the simple things in life still made us smile. When we take a moment and see the world through child's eyes it becomes so much less complex! We can begin to laugh at small things that adults think are beneath them. I love to watch little children at service raise their hands in praise or close their hands in prayer. They try so hard even though they do not understand the whys behind the actions. We could love people like a small child if we allowed God to direct our lives! Have the mind of Christ in you and your world will change! Hallelujah!!
