Life is mysterious, fascinating, intriguing. Here my words nibble around the edges of it as the mood takes me.

Depth in the Day
"The God who speaks, speaks in the ordinary events and interactions of the day. What excitement this adds to a routine day!
When we renounce the flat world of sight and sense as the whole of reality, a new world of enchantment and mystery begins to be born.
It's not that the material world is unreal, but it is incomplete. "
Neither is the enchanted world of spirit new; rather, we are reclaiming our organs of perception - eyes of the heart and ears of the soul - to notice what has been there all along."
Finding an author who expresses so beautifully what I was trying to say in a previous post is really exciting.
(See "Me Tag" post - two back)
This is a deeply engaging book, for anyone who is interested in pursuing this kind of thinking.
Title: "Living before God" -
Subtitled: " Deepening our Sense of the Divine Presence" by Ben Campbell Johnson.
