Listen to Life Like a Child: And Make A Life, Not Just a Living

Once upon a time, in a land that may seem far, far away, you were a child. Not just a little adult. You were a child. You heard Love you! so much that it may have been your first sentence. Every time you reached up, there was a hand to hold. You treated others like you wanted to be treated. Your attitude was positive yet realistic. You loved playtime and knew how to play nice. But then something happened. You grew up. And you decided you couldn t be a child anymore. So you left behind the lessons God birthed in you and sat at the feet of a new teacher who taught that revenge is stronger than love, only the weak hold hands, good is relative so get all the goods from your relatives you can, and playing nice is for sissies. Now you re joyless, restless and heartless, distressed, dissatisfied, and despairing; unhappy, uncomfortable, and uncaring. You re stuck in a rut of just making a living. You know there s more to life, but where? You want to make a life, but how? Crawl into God s lap with this book and Listen to Life Like a Child and make a life, not just a living. Discover everyday stories about your life, listening to God say, Love you!, Hold My Hand, Be Good, Look Both Ways, and Play Nice.
