To be forever young is the dream and desire of most people. When you are in the company of young children or teenagers and when you emotionally mirror their enthusiasm, you are whatever age they presently are, either 2, 6, 10, 12 or 17. Societal inhibitions leave and you can laugh and giggle and enjoy being young again.
Age definitely is a state of mind. It has nothing to do with calendar age. That means it's in direct relation to your thoughts and attitudes. The less you think about the ills of your body and the woes of your mind, the more you will enjoy childlikeness.
When you begin to think only on things that are happy, true, just, lovely, good, kind, gentle and of a good report, if there be anything to praise you will think like a child, trusting in Me and My heavenly forces to bring good things into your life.
Children trust their parents to provide for them, protect them, avenge them, stand up for them, guide them and keep them from evil. You must keep that same vein of thought in your mind, that I am doing everything that can be done to ensure an abundant life for you.
I said that you must come to Me like a child, with that kind of trust. Those thoughts will produce a clear road upon which My multitude of blessings can be delivered into your life.
Childlike enthusiasm is the key. It begins to show on your face, it begins to renew your body and it begins to restore your mind like it was when you first met Me, reaching out to Me in joy.
Physical, mental and spiritual age are in direct proportion to your joyful thoughts and attitudes. Children love life and are always waiting for the next gift from their parents. Do likewise, love life, be thankful and eagerly await My gifts and blessings.
Love, God
