“Because children have abounding vitality, because they are in spirit fierce and free, therefore they want things repeated and unchanged. They always say, “Do it again”; and the grown-up person does it again until he is nearly dead. For grown-up people are not strong enough to exult in monotony. But perhaps God is strong enough to exult in monotony. It is possible that God says every morning, “Do it again” to the sun; and every evening, “Do it again” to the moon. It may not be automatic necessity that makes all daisies alike; it may be that God makes every daisy separately, but has never got tired of making them. It may be that He has the eternal appetite of infancy; for we have sinned and grown old, and our Father is younger than we.”
― G.K. Chesterton, Orthodoxy
Snowflakes cut by little hands. Scraps of paper litter the floor. Outdoors actual icy flakes drift gently to the ground. No two are the SAME. Each is unique. Cutting snowflakes with a child restores wonder.
Always beautiful, always different. Do I SEE the evening sky? No two sunsets are the SAME. Father, I don’t want to miss Your new canvas of wonder.
Moments fill each new day. Another one begins. No two the same, each full of blessings for eyes that choose to SEE. Let me rejoice! You made a new day for me again Today!
Each person a wonderful masterpiece. No two alike. Children from SAME parents demonstrate wonderful uniqueness. Each treasured by the Father. Each a world of discovery for me. Help me SEE each precious person God places in my life. Help me serve them as if they were Christ. He loves each one with the SAME complete delight.
“I see Jesus in every human being. I say to myself, this is hungry Jesus, I must feed him. This is sick Jesus. This one has leprosy or gangrene; I must wash him and tend to him. I serve because I love Jesus.”
― Mother Teresa
What a beautiful perspective given by Mother Teresa.
