If God is with us… (Part 1)

Posted on December 20, 2013April 1, 2017 by Norm

(Borrowed from Richard J. Vincent, God In The Ordinary)

If we lived in light of God’s presence we would see God in everything. Every aspect of life would be transformed.

1. The secular would become sacred in the presence of God. The distinction between one’s “spiritual life” and one’s “secular life” would evaporate completely. Everything would become charged with the grandeur of God. Common dualistic divides would lose their significance – the ordinary would become super-ordinary, the natural supernatural, the physical spiritual, and the secular sacred. The world would become aflame with glory. Childlike wonder would be restored. Everything would become new, full of mystery and possibility. The tedious boredom of secularization would be replaced by the fresh excitement of the sacramental possibilities of all creation.

think about it!

I’d do it differently if I had another chance. I’d make a positive and sustained attempt to use judicious praise rather than find fault, to warmly accept rather than critique. Most of the people I know up close need a break.
