Lessons from preschoolers

So, I have been doing Bible School this week at Chicopee, helping Anthony and Abby with the preschoolers. They are so cute and have an insatiable energy about them. They are curious, ask tons of questions and get amused by the simplest things. I used to be like that.. and then I grew up. Whenever I ask questions now, I am seen as either ignorant or annoying. Also, when I watch the kids sing songs about Jesus and ask questions about the Bible, I am taken aback. I wish I had that kind of enthusiasm for the Lord right now. I don't want to call what I am going through a valley.. it is worse than that. It is more like a miry pit. I am falling deeper and deeper and I can't get out, no matter how hard I try. I want to call for help, but something keeps me from doing that, and I can't for the life of me, figure out what it is. Anyways, just pray for me please

"He lifted me up out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and the mire, he set my feet on a rock and gave me a new song to sing." -- Psalm 40:2

Amber... he will lift you out of the pit, and he will give you the excitement and joy of those little kids, but you have to ask and you have to give him your hand as he tries to help you climb out of the pit... I know how you feel, but remember this too will pass, and its all about the process... and we are all in process... not just you.
