These days are long and short,
exhausting and joyful,
mundane and yet
Miraculous.

Help me, Lord, through the paradox of it all,
be here in this moment,
truly seeing this child of yours,
who will never again be this little.

May I resist the pull to productivity,
choosing eternal investments
over immediate results,
sparkling eyes full of wonder
over the skepticism of this current age.

May the dishes stay dirty,
the shopping list pinned to the fridge.
For I am invited to a tea party,
where animals talk
and laughter is currency,
storing up treasures
moth and rust
can never destroy.

“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.” And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them.(MARK 10:14B-16 NIV)
