I Am Alive with the Exuberance of Life.
A child experiences the world for the first time in so many ways: a snowfall; a puppy’s energetic, wriggly attention; a rainbow; a cookie. There is excitement and magic in these new encounters—a wonder, filled with surprise. My sense of wonder has evolved, yet I remain excited about new discoveries or breakthroughs in my life. I might devise a new way to accomplish a task. Perhaps I will reestablish contact with an old friend after many years apart. A spiritual principle I practice might change my perspective. I can bring more excitement into my life by trying new things, like learning to play a musical instrument or speak a foreign language. As I challenge myself, I feel ever more alive.
Open my eyes, so that I may behold wondrous things out of your law.—Psalm 119:18
