The Childlike Joy of Creation

How did God create daisies? I say, "Like a child." You throw a child up in the air or bounce him off your knee. When you sit him on the floor, the first thing the kid says is, "Do it again!" Throw him in the air; catch him; bounce him off your knee; set him on the floor. The kid's going to yell, "Do it again!" Do it fifty times. The fiftieth time, the kid is yelling hysterically, "Do it again! Do it again!" The excitement of a little child.

That's how God created daisies. He created one daisy. I'm sure of this. In the childlike heart of God, he clapped and said; "Do it again!" He created daisy number two. Something within God said, "Do it again!" He created daisy number three and four and five. Fifty billion, trillion daisies later, the great God of the universe is still creating with childlike excitement and joy and yelling, "Do it again!"
