Wonder
Go
We talk about looking at things with the wonder of a child, seeing them for the first time, in all their glory.
I am thinking more and more about how with the new life Christ, I am seeing things with all new wonder. A wonder I didn't even have as a little girl.
Maybe because as a almost 26 year old woman, I am learning to be a little girl cherished by the Heavenly Father. It is so sweet and tender.
Sometimes I see things with these new eyes, and my eyes literally fill with tears and I experience the pain that walls used to protect me from. But this is where God meets me and shows me His protection and justice. Seen with the eyes of the child, and understood from the everlasting, loving arms of the Father.
And other times it is the wonder of joy. I have laughed, cried, sang, and danced more in the last 3 or 4 years than I ever have. I've been the little girl seeing life and my Daddy with the eyes of wonder.
