The desire to know, explore, create, and understand is intrinsic to the brain. Wonder and curiosity are what drive the development of the mind, strengthening mental muscles and opening pathways to knowledge. Wonder is the beginning of gathering knowledge that beckons us to further pursue the mysteries of life. It leads us on a continual journey of discovery. All those driving questions that filled my mind throughout my education were the Holy Spirit’s way to drive me to want to know and understand this amazing world that God had designed for our knowledge and pleasure.

Children who are allowed a wonder-filled life will cultivate inner strength, a confidence in their own ability to think, evaluate, and know.
