Life is a mystery to unfold, a game to play out, and a an adventure upon which to learn to love. Each day we are invited to take a closer look, to open our hearts and to live out the life of love that is who we are to our best ability. When I get stuck in a particular mindset of limitation I find life to be an obstacle. All I see are problems and difficulties and I lose my sense of wonder and curiosity about life. I think this is what Jesus was talking about when he encouraged his followers to be like the children. Kids have a natural attitude of curiosity and wonder in finding out. They have not yet learned to make themselves wrong for not knowing the answer. When a question begets another question they are motivated to keep moving forward. Somewhere along the way, I got the message that it was not okay to question. I should simply know the answer. I could rack my brain trying to figure out why or I could look at even that with curiosity and just notice if that way of looking at things still works for me. My prayer for us today is that we be open to the wonder of what we think we already should know and just ask God, is this how you see it? Make it a great one! Peace~Colleen
