18:3 and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye turn, and become as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven.
As an adult, who still loves her childhood stuff, I get pressured into watching movies that I should not watch. The mind-set seems to be that if you are an adult then you should watch movies that children should not watch.
I love to watch the 1960s Twilight Zone. The other day I caught the very end of one episode. What I value about that show is the boldness that they had to teach moral lessons. The moral to this certin Episode is that it is ok for adults to act like children and to keep and love the things that you enjoyed back then. When I heard that I looked at my brother and said, "Boy, my DVD collection is packed with those things."
Petra once sang a song about letting your heart grow to old. "Don't let your heart be hardened....may it always stay so child-like. May it never grow to old." 1:1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the wicked, Nor standeth in the way of sinners, Nor sitteth in the seat of scoffers: 1:2 But his delight is in the law of Jehovah; And on his law doth he meditate day and night. 1:3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, That bringeth forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also doth not wither; And whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. 1:4 The wicked are not so, But are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. 1:5 Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 1:6 For Jehovah knoweth the way of the righteous; But the way of the wicked shall perish.
