“God comes to you disguised as your life.”
Life these days has a rhythm. I guess every life does. Biology and all. Life with small kids, a full workload, and constant creative projects make that rhythm more of a complex jazz beat. Alternating morning and evening routines with the kids. Scheduling long runs and recovery runs around them. Looking for the days without meetings for opportunities to write in a coffee shop or edit video for an extended chunk of time.
“God comes to you disguised as your life.”
The quote is attributed to Paula d’Arcy, who tragically lost a spouse and child in a car accident while pregnant and who has ever since been a writer and spiritual guide, helping people identify God’s presence in every day realities. Bland, beautiful, or brutal as they come.
“God comes to you disguised as your life.”
The love that holds the world together creates infinite possibilities, some we allow to play out into the horrors of war in headlines and social media. Some we turn into new life in backyard gardens and tunnel slides. And some days we just get to take three breaths, reheat leftovers, and know there’s something sacred there too.
