In Brennan Manning's Ragamuffin Gospel, he tells about his friend who asks God every day for a sense of awe and wonder.  In this world, it is so easy to become overwhelmed and discouraged by the pain and evil that is so pervasive.  Still, even more pervasive, but much of the time less obvious, is the goodness and beauty of God.

When I read that portion of the book (years ago), I wanted to make it my prayer as well.  I think I prayed for that sense of awe for about three days before forgetting.  Every now and then, though, I remember.  When I do remember, I think of this song and video.

I hope I remember when I'm their age to make this happen...
