Bible

I love my Bible app.
I have started to read the Bible from the beginning, Genesis 1. I decided on a 90 day plan, fully expecting it to take longer than that, but what the heck.
Its been a long while since I have opened a Bible beyond looking for a certain quote at any given time. But to sit down and learn something new? Its been a while.
I am doing this because I am trying to remember how it felt as a kid.
Let me illustrate this a little better.
When I was five, I was sent to the principal's office one day, but it wasn't for any bad behavior on my part.
I was in kindergarten in my Catholic grade school, and my teacher let us color anything.
I was absolutely in love with Catholicism, the stories, the saints, with God Almighty.
So I imagined the most perfect thing my mind could muster: heaven.
I drew literally the most detailed drawing of heaven that a 5 year old boy with no artistic talent could manage.
My teacher was blown away when I turned it in. She took the drawing to the office to show the Dominican sister what I had drawn. The school called my mom, and my mom came in during her lunch break, a little confused.
The four of us talked, and though I don't remember anything about the conversation, I remember them doting on me for my extreme belief and love of God and the Bible.
I tell this to illustrate the kind of faith I always want to have.
My faith is doing great right now.
But I always look back on that time of my life as my model for my faith.
The splendor, the awe, the love I felt at that time of my life was unlike anything I have ever felt, and I always try to strive to feel that way again.
