There are many benefits to holding onto one's childlike wonder, for instance, holding onto one's childlike wonder allows people to be more creative, faithful and humble.[1] Most notably Walt Disney used his childlike wonder to be successful in his career.
Childlike Wonder and Faith
“Let the children come to me, and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.” - Luke 18:15-17 Holding onto one's Childlike Wonder makes people better Christians. It makes one more grateful for God's gifts, and what God has in store for people. It makes people humble enough to be willing to learn new things. [2] When people lose the wonder of what God has created, it is easy to lose a lot of the wonder of who God is. [3]
