Extraordinary Living

I follow a great blog called shortguywithglasses.blogspot.com

The writer is a great man with unbelievable insight.
I stumbled upon a revalation by http:/www.brandiandboys.wordpress.com that touches on the short guy's recent post.

Here goes:

Extraordinary thing happen around us continually. We just don’t always recognize them. The thought occurs to me afresh that great lives don’t always seem great while we’re living them. They may seem embarrassingly regular. Seeking to be extraordinary isn’t the answer because great lives are never achieved by making greatness the goal.

Everyone of us who embraces the glory of God as our purpose will end up doing great things precisely because we do God-things. His holy hand resting on the least act renders the ordinary extraordinary. Spooning soup into the mouth of the weak or manning the nursery so a tired mom can go to church are acts of high worship when offered in the name of Christ. He beholds the sight like a breathtaking work of art, tilting His head to study each subtle detail.

To live for the greatness of God is to live the great life. I’ve heard it before, I’ve said it before, but this time I’m making the effort to choose to LIVE it. What about you?


Think about it!!
