I Wanna Go Back

If you have ever met my beautiful daughter, Bryleigh, you will quickly learn two things about her…1. She is full of life... and 2. She does not care what people think. She has no problem saying awkward things or asking questions to complete strangers. She just doesn’t care! In a way (stay with me) I am jealous because she will skip, laugh, cry, cry some more, talk, and sing as if she is the only one around. BUT it’s also sad because there will be things that happen and she will grow up and at some level she will begin to care what people think.

I like the song that’s out by David Dunn called, "I Wanna Go Back" it's so true.  Check out some of the lyrics…

When I was a kid
I was sure
I could run across the ocean
And I was gonna be an astronaut

When it was You and it was me
I had everything I needed
Faith could even move a mountain top

And then I grew up
And then I got older
Then my life got tough
And we grew apart

I wanna go back
To Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me
For the Bible tells me so
I wanna go back
To this little light
Gonna let it shine
Gonna let it shine
I wanna go back

When I was a kid
I didn't care to keep up with the Jones's
I was just happy that they lived next door

 

There is some thing very attractive about going back to a time when the opinion of others didn’t matter and life wasn’t so hard.  I’ve thought lately, what if my faith was like a child… what would it look like if I acted on what I say I believe like in this Psalm…

Psalm 118:6  "The Lord is for / with me, so I will have no fear.  What can mere people do to me?"
