2 Things i learned today

There are 2 Things i learned today:

1. We reach for God in many ways. Through sculptures, scriptures, pictures, prayer, writing, worship and through them he reaches for us. His search begins with something said. Ours begins with something heard. His begins with something shown and ours with something seen. Our search for God and his search for us meet at windows in our everyday experience.

2.The way of seeing begins with respect. The way we show respect is to give it a second look, alook not of the eyes but of the heart. But so often we don´t give something a second look because we dont think there is anything there to see.
To respect something is to understand that there is something there to see, that it is not all surface, that something lies beneath the surface, something that has the power to change the way we think or feel, something that may prove so profound a revelation as to change not only how we look at our lives but how we live it.

How wonderful!
