to a Christmas tree with great excitement wanting not just to look at it but to touch and experience it. I wish that I could come to Christ day after day with the same type of eager anticipation that children approach a Christmas tree with. Josh Peters told me earlier this week that when his girls get close to their tree, they cannot contain their excitement and one of them begins to scream. When was the last time that I responded in like manner towards the one who has saved me and given me more hope than I can imagine? No wonder Christ said “let the children come to me”…they get it!

Get away from my tree you little animals! Don’t make me sit out on the porch with a BB gun again… j/k I enjoy knowing they like it.

On a serious note: I believe we all have different triggers of this reaction, but a great worship song always does it for me. I get all excited and cry and act like a child. Yup, I cry when I worship. There, I said it!
