Not too long ago, I went for a walk and came upon this tree. A Wish Tree. How ingenious! After all, how many Wish Trees have you come across lately?

Creativity is everywhere but I find that children tend to be more creative than adults. God made us in His image and He is the Master Creator. We have the creative gene!

Unfortunately, we are taught to color inside the lines and think inside the box. As adults we have to relearn the natural art of thinking outside the box – like this Wish Tree. Who’s to say their wishes won’t come true? Doesn’t the book of James tell us that we don’t have because we don’t ask? Are we not instructed to step out in faith? Perhaps this is a step of faith for a creative mind.

I hope their wishes come true. I hope they never lose their creativity and sense of adventure. I have my own wish list – under another name. Maybe I’ll go and make myself a Wish Tree!
