“Much of what is sacred is hidden in the ordinary, everyday moments of our lives. To see something of the sacred in those moments takes slowing down so we can live our lives more reflectively.”
–Ken Gire
Powerful words. I found myself breaking “everyday” apart and realizing that there may be some things that happen EVERY DAY that I am missing just for that reason, they happen regularly. Could it be that they are happening every day so that I can, just maybe, experience God? Those moments could be God knocking on my heart until I invite Him in. Wow, these words from Einstein came to mind –
“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”
Albert Einstein
God will try again and again to get my attention. Your attention. Every day. In ordinary moments. Not insanity. Compassion. Grace. Persistence. Love.
Today may God bless you with a few moments of slowing down…maybe have a conversation with someone you see every day but pass by. Maybe pull that book off the shelf that you keep meaning to read… or make a phone call or send an email that you think about sending every day.
Trust in His love. Expect different results from the ordinary, everyday moments TODAY.
