Spirituality: Annie Dillard
We live in all we seek. The hidden shows up in too-plain sight. It lives captive on the face of the obvious - the people, events, and things of the day - to which we as sophisticated children have long since become oblivious. What a hideout: Holiness lies spread and borne over the surface of time and stuff like color.

Sophistication is the bane of our society - if only we would follow Christ and see the world through the eyes of an innocent child. Holiness is everywhere as God is in everything. Thank you for this reflection.
