I say yes to life!
Jesus
told us to become like a child to enter the kingdom. The kingdom—a
state of joy, peace, and goodness—awaits my willingness to meet new
experiences like a child. Children may see the world as both scary and
exciting. New experiences may cause me to feel fear, elation, or both. I
am certain to feel alive. A toddler is reassured by a parent’s presence during her first
merry-go-round ride. In the same way, Spirit is with me through every
new adventure. I welcome new opportunities with anticipation. The
desires of my heart enthusiastically propel me across new thresholds and
onto what may be the experience of a lifetime. I awake to the kingdom
of God within me. I say yes to life!
Let
the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such
as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs.—Matthew 19:14
