a secret

"the obviously well kept secret of the "ordinary" is that it is made to be a receptacle of the divine" -dallas willard

funny (sarcastic) how I can consistently forget the gospel. forget in the sense that I seem to not intersect with it daily, weekly, hourly - while in reality I do, i just have an orientation other than what I desire to have. i forget that a divine footnote lurks after every word on every page in this Story that we are all living in.
reading the story of the harlot in luke 7, i find myself in the pharisees place - thinking I have it "more together" than them over there. As we heard on Sunday night, the Gospel - while for everyone - is not to be thought of as only being needed by my neighbor who doesn't cut their "grass".
