This Inner Glow of Childlikeness is our True Identity. It is the holy balanced place, a joyous state of believing. This pure, innocent, innate knowing tells us there is something grander than the scene at hand, something greater than the awesome laws of nature that put the scene here. It takes the heart of childlikeness to see beyond society and its institutions, beyond the mistaken human precepts that keep people bound to what is not real and never was. The wonders of believing like a little child takes the walls of the prison down. It takes a still deeper sense of childlikeness to see that there is an attainable link between ourselves and the intuited greater Reality. Truly we can find our way out of the lies, the fear and deceptions we have accepted as true and real. And here, right here in this childlike joy, this is the marvel of marvels.
Dear Sandy,
“Believing like a child” … this brought me to another look at that word “believe”.
As a quick look in the dictionary will show, there are basically 2 ways in which that word believe is used.
This writing on the “The wonders of believing like a child” aligns with the first definition of “believe”
1. accept (something) as true; feel sure of the truth of.
The second definition is the one that seems to apply to most adults who are ‘lost in thought’ as Eckhart Tolle would say:
2. hold (something) as an opinion; think or suppose.
