“For everything there is a season,
a time for every activity under heaven…
a time to laugh…a time to dance.”
Ecclesiastes 3:1,4
“So, what qualifies as play - making art, sleeping in, riding a bike, baking cookies, watching movies? Very simply, play is doing something for the enjoyment of doing it, even if we don’t do it particularly well. It’s something that doesn’t need to be done.
Whatever else Jesus meant when He urged His disciples to be childlike, perhaps He wanted them to play more. All the other virtues of childlikeness - trust, wonder, simplicity, humility - arise out of the richness of play. When we embrace fun, we’re not only more joyful and creative in all we do; we also become radiant reflection of our Creator.”
