We live in a world where most things are explainable. There are fewer and fewer mysteries left to
be explained. Scientists have been able
to send robotic submarines to the deepest pats of the oceans to discover and
explain what lives in these remote areas. Rocket ships have been sent to the
moon, to Mars and to the edge of our universe to discover if life exists
outside our planet and to learn more about the scientific processes of
creation.
It seems there are few things left to discover. There are no new worlds to discover. The universe has been mapped and distant
stars are named.
I prefer to live in a world where discovery and mystery and
wonder still exist. I prefer to live in
a world where I can still ask ‘why?” and maybe never know the answer. When was
the last time you wondered about anything? When was the last time you experienced
something unexplainable?
Wonder surrounds us; all we have to do is allow ourselves to
experience the wonder. Some call it
having a childlike heart. I think of
Jesus instructing his followers to change and become like little children so
they may enter the kingdom of heaven. Imagine
experiencing the kingdom of heaven (which we can experience here and now) with
a childlike heart.
My friend, and one of my favorite authors, Margaret Feinberg
has a new book releasing on Christmas day: “Wonderstruck: Awaken to the
Nearness of God.” Recently I was sent a
sample of the book and I found myself smiling and laughing as I read through
it. And it challenged me to see the
wonder that exists around me. Throughout
the book Margaret displays her childlike heart, even in the ways she prays:
“More than anything, what I long
for is our God, the One who bedazzled the heavens and razzle-dazzled the earth,
to meet us in such a way during our time in Scotland that we find ourselves
awestruck by his goodness and generosity, his provision and presence. I’m
praying for pixie dust. I want to leave here with a sense of wonderment as we
encounter and experience things only God can do.”
When have you ever prayed for pixie dust? Maybe it is time for a heart check-up, a time
to rediscover your childlike heart.
Margaret is offering the book at a reduced price on Amazon
and Barnes and Noble for $7.57. The book
would make an awesome Christmas gift (I have gifted many of Margaret’s books in
the past). This offer is only valid
through the end of the day, December 25th.
Join me as we all learn to live wonderstruck together!

However it is not only a one on one translation of the video which in turn wouldn't be the better choice always, because the perspective of your film's account originates from the human perspective, not really the shark's.What game play aspects do you experience this required? Single pound: Every one of the biting down hard, ripping, hauling, and also floating around activities can be extremely vital that you capture the design of actively playing because mother nature's greatest predator. We also labored on break techniques, by which Lips may step out of your normal water for you to capsize watercraft or grab human attackers. Making it a more complete encounter, all of us added free-roaming gaming, manager fights, as well as a selection of missions and side issues, also.
