I think it apropos that, as I begin my launch into this blog about finding God, exercising the unused muscles of faith and transcendence, that a family member (who I am sure prefers to remain anonymous) spills the evaporated milk everywhere as he pokes about our overstuffed refrigerator - requiring some practical assistance.
It is easy to "wax eloquent" when one has the luxury of good health, and a tranquil and uninterrupted space in which to compose ones thoughts. But that is not the setting that God has chosen for most of us, and - we had better get used to finding Him in the midst of our day to day concerns. Perhaps that is why He sent His Son - to be bound up in the time and space of this planet, and in the pressures of daily life - as he cared for a single mom (after Joseph's absence) and providing for a family, dealing with those who scorn and minimalize who you are and what you stand for.
Join me in the journey!
