As Oswald Chambers wrote, and Emily Freeman quoted in her remarkable book about embracing the everyday versions of ourselves:
“It is ingrained in us that we have to do exceptional things for God – but we do not. We have to be exceptional in the ordinary things of life, and holy on the ordinary streets, among ordinary people – and this is not learned in five minutes.”
I’m still learning it. I imagine I will be learning it for the rest of my life.
quote from Lisa-Jo Baker, Surprised by Motherhood blog.
Good stuff.
