"What’s your discovery?"


Last month I shared a story with you about an autistic child who ate sand out of the sandbox. The mother was elated because the child discovered textures.

I’ve received emails from folks describing their own "sand discoveries." Seems a lot of us enjoyed discovering textures. My favorite was from a woman who shared her discovery as a three or four year old. She had discovered that a bean would grow in a cup. She wanted to see if it would grow in her nose so she shoved a bean up her nose and guess what? It sprouted! Her parents took her to the hospital to have it removed. Some of her friends call her "Bean" today.

I wonder what happens to the curiosity we have as children? Are you still making discoveries in the sand or garden of your life?

Somewhere along the way to becoming a mature, sophisticated adult, maybe you lost your sense of curiosity.
God created this world for you to enjoy making discoveries. Ask "Why?" and "What if…" today as you listen to life like a child and make a life, not just a living.
