The Wonder of Bubbles

Micah and Bethany spent the day playing with their Haitian friends, Eduardo and Chardeline.  I found some bubbles that we had brought back with us from the States.  It was the first time their friends had ever played with bubbles.  It was fun to se the excitement and wonder that a little bottle of bubbles brings.  You know, bubbles are old hat for us.  We have seen them so many times that they do not make us smile or laugh or jump for joy anymore.  I wonder if that is how many of us have become with our Savior and with our salvation.  We have lost the joy and the wonder that first came with our sins being forgiven forever.  I need to pray as David did in Psalm 51, "Restore unto me the joy of my salvation."  With restored joy will come a restored fervor to serve the Lord more and to spread that joy to others.
