Carefree.

I want to go back to the carefree days. The days of wonder and adventure. The days of endless dreams and hopes. The days when life was so simple. I long for that wonder again. I long for those bigger then life dreams. I long for that simplistic childish faith. I long for those fresh eyes so full of questions about life. I long for those prayers that turned into miracles. I long for those days of opening the Word and being blown away by God’s grace. I long for that shock and brokenness I felt seeing poverty and suffering for the first time. Sometime I feel so numb. I want to dream again. I want to trust God more again. I want to have that same sense of wonder and adventure again. It’s so easy to get caught up in the cycle of everyday life. It’s so easy to put our dreams aside and be comfortable where we are. I guess all I’m saying is in many regards I’d like to have that fresh childlike outlook on life. I don’t want to ever stop and settle for a mundane everyday life. Sure, I’m traveling the world but even then I can get stuck and overwhelmed trying to figure everything out that I forget to actually live life. I don’t even know if any of this makes sense but basically I long to see God and this world through those childish eyes again. I want to never stop dreaming big. I want to never settle for less. I want to live a life full of wonder, excitement, and joy for my Father’s glory!
