Ordinariness the greatest thing that I posess!

Most of the time we walk out this thing called salvation in a very ordinary way. We still have to eat, sleep, love, cry, laugh and yes work through those thorny issues of life within the very ordinary worlds we inhabit. I wonder which is the main frame picture of you world today? Are you a wee mummy up to your eyes in split yogurt and longing for undisturbed sleep, or perhaps you are a student feeling overwhelmed by the amount of work and lack of money. Maybe you are missing someone terribly or feeling trapped in circumstance. Or perhaps you're just plain bored...? Yup..! Life is pretty ordinary most of the time. But I want to encourage you today, Jesus didn't hang out with the 'beautiful people' or the especially gifted. Nope He hung out with people like me and you... very ordinary people. Even when Jesus did miracles they were performed in very ordinary situations.

Perhaps we need to embrace the ordinariness of life to the best of our ability, knowing it is in the middle of ordinary people and circumstance that Our extra ordinary God is most glorified.
