Have you ever noticed, kids can watch the same movie, read the same book, or play the same game every day and not get tired of it? We say: "Ugh, baby shark, again????!???"
They rejoice: "Do it again!"
I wonder if God is "child-like."
Each morning he declares to the sun, "Do it again!"
And when the sun sets he declares, "Do it AGAIN!" Oh, I just love the sunset.
Jesus told Nicodemus we must be "Born again" to enter the Kingdom of God. In other words we must learn to let go of control. We must give up our right to have everything figured out and trust in God.
Yet, we worry about so many things. Meanwhile God is smiling. As He speaks the wind and waves obey. Chaos is a result of us thinking control is necessary.
Jesus said it this way: "If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake, you will save it."
May you have the faith of a child today.
May you find peace in the journey and freedom in the surrender.
