What if…

What if the reason God loves the heart of children who serve Him is because children don’t have to have lost something of feel obligated to serve God.  They serve out of a sincere desire to please Him.  Maybe that’s what we as adults have to learn to let go of…the “feeling of obligation” to serve God and remember what it was like to want to please Him without the expectancy of a reward.  Would I long to serve God more if I were blind or had some form of handicap?  Does it take me losing something I hold precious for me to understand that it was never mine to begin with, but His for me to serve with?  What is there in my life that doesn’t serve to do God’s work?  And if it doesn’t serve God’s work, what am I gonna do about getting rid of it?
