My daughter walked outside the other day. It was a sunny day; the birds were singing. The grass was turning green and the sky was filled with those paper-thin, whispery clouds of spring days.
In the middle of the deep green grass, there was a lone dandelion bloom. Dandelions are weeds, pests of the gardening world, and where you have one, you're sure to have ten. They are the bane of many a gardener's existence.
What did my daughter say?
"Look what Jesus made for me."
Many seek such wisdom and simplicity, and our children possess it naturally. It's a beautiful thing.
