Spirit like a child.

The day I look up in the clouds and cannot see the faces and animals will be a sad day indeed, for that means I am loosing the childlike part of my heart.  There are many things that God values in his relationship with us, but I am sure being childlike in order to draw close to him is near the top of the list.  Especially in the beginning of our Christian journey.  He gives us that truth in scripture.  He wants us to come to him like children.
I think that pure simple part of us can also spur confidence in our creativity. Who doesn't miss that spark in our heart that was so excited when we created something and couldn't wait to show someone... rather than being afraid of the critical judgement that might come from exposing our creations. I have seen that kids with Autistic tendencies have missed the "I'm scared to show you how great I am" gene.  If I tell Brady he is great at something, he very matter of factly smiles and says " I know,right!".  In the way only a child can, he is humble and excited at the same time...not boastful or bragging.  It is pure and wonderful. I hope no one ever destroys that in him and I feel pretty certain it is safe.  So in my excited and humble way...not to brag because I know there are gobs of talented picture hangers out there!!!!  :o)  Here is my weekend project...YAY
