Common
There is Dear Reader, a push within our society to have all things fantastic and special.The implication being, that those things which are simple and common are of little value. Yet God places no such restriction, for it is within the little things of this life that we can perceive the saviour at work. A father who chooses his family over career. A Mother who limits herself so her family may have more. A teenager who rejects a hedonistic lifestyle in favour of serving others in the area. In these and many other small acts we find Christ, we find him in the attitudes, we find him in the thoughts, and we find him in the actions. Another commentator puts it like this, " One of the most amazing revelations of God comes when we learn that it is in the commonplace things that the Deity of Jesus Christ is realized" May I encourage you Dear Reader, to find the holy in the common!
