Seeing God in Everyday Life
It was business-as-usual for Moses the day he noticed the burning bush, an event that wasn’t uncommon in the hot desert. Except this time the bush kept burning and “when…he turned aside to look, God called to him.” You’ll have some of your greatest Spiritual experiences in the midst of your everyday life – if you’re open to a divine interruption.
Are you so busy working on your ‘to-do list’ that it would take fire from heaven to get your attention? As someone has rightly said: “You can be in the midst of a common moment, only this time the activity is filled with the presence of God. When in the middle of your harried day you notice something unusual…your first reaction might be, ‘I’m too tired to investigate…I’m not going to disrupt my life.’ Yet in that moment you may have the opportunity for a unique encounter with God. When you see the unusual in the midst of the mundane, don’t continue business-as-usual. God may have ordained that moment to be life-changing for you and those around you.”
Rev Peter Morphew
