we have been talking about this idea that everything is spiritual. there is never any time in our lives that God is not there. Which means that there is never any moment that is more spiritual than the next. This is a new thought for most of us because we like to think of life in segments, like in an ice tray. THink about it for a sec, have you ever made ice cube popsicles? it the same thing we take some Tang dust (i love Tang) and sprinkle a little bit in each section of the tray. In our life its like you have sports dust in a couple of sections, Home dust in a couple of sections, school dust in a couple of sections, then if your a christian you put jesus dust in a couple of sections. While this is a nice organizational tactic it doesn’t work very well in our connection to god. if you look in Job 34:14 Job says if god took his spirit from us we would turn into dust. So to think we can segment god into a section of our tray is wrong and I think a little insulting to God. I think the way god wants it, is not like ice cubes of tang but a pitcher of tang. You take your dust and merge it with the god (or in this tang analogy Water) until the point you can not discern the difference to where God ends and we begin. I really believe this is how Jesus wants it, and designed it. If you look at the creation of human beings in genesis 2. God took some dirt from our home (Earth) put himself inside the dirt and out came adam. God is always present. He is always there. Even in those moments we are most embarrassed and ashamed of god was standing right there beside us. That puts a new perspective on our life. When we are in boring history class God is just as present as when we are in church.
