Grow Up!

Grow Up!

We get told this alot throughout our lives...potty training by mommy, by our peers as teens, our teachers along the way, in college or your first job regularly...you get the point.

I'm not sure that growing up is so wise though, not completely. I've been at home sick for the last day and a half and my youngest children (3 & 5) came up to me throughout the day and gave me hugs, and encouragement, and told me they prayed for me to get better. It was unconditional, outwardly focused love, in a very non-grown-up way. Maybe if we were more like them, we would be more usable by Christ, or we'd have more opportunities to be used.

So that's what I'm thinking today...don't grow up so fast.
