Innocence

It seems to me that the author was describing how children like structure in the sense that things go along unchanged and repetitive. Children love monotony whereas adults grow tired of the same object or action very quickly. G. K. Chesterton points out that God has a child-like delight and has kept the innocence of youth unlike us as adults have grown old and tired of repetition. We as a society have become so unappreciative of the beauty and greatness of the world around us. As we grow older we seem to lose the innocence we enjoyed as children. This world (sin) makes us jaded and unaware of the miracles which surround us. Perhaps because we are filled with the Holy Spirit we could retrieve some of the innocence that we once enjoyed. If God is in fact younger than us, then why could we not recover some of the incorruptibility we once had?
