To the ordinary day…

Lenten Reflections #25

To the ordinary day:

Thank you for the mammogram and the basket of laundry. For that long walk with the dogs, two hours on the phone with the Xfinity representative, and the lower bill. Thanks for a job to go to, work that matters, and the rain to wash the pollen away. Thanks for the Costco $1.50 hot dogs, a full tank of gas, and the traffic that slowed my rushed psyche today. For the sink full of dishes, windows to wash and clothes to get dirty. For serenity in the minutia, I thank the ordinary day.

What I learned:

Days devoid of any exceptional or grandiose elements are cloaked in a spiritual goodness, freeing our daily to-do lists to fill us with grace and purpose.

Count every little blessing and thank God for them all.

Here’s to Another good ORDINARY day,

Thanks for joining me,

Lucretia
