Participating in Divinity

WHEN BEFORE THE BEAUTY
OF SUNRISE OR A MOUNTAIN,
YOU PAUSE AND EXCLAIM,
"AH,"
YOU ARE PARTICIPATING
IN DIVINITY.

~Joseph Campbell

Of Note: We all know the moment about which Campbell is referring. It is the "chills up the backbone" scene when we all know that God Transcendent is Real. Maybe even more amazing, we each carry God Immanent in our hearts and can experience this "Aha" moment at any time and place.

Today's Weather Report: It was one of those funky days when the sun shone at our house but 15 miles away it was snowing lightly. The weather forecast shows minus 10 degrees tonight but then for the next few days it should be in the 20's. My hope is that we have a January thaw with the temps in the 30's. This past week all the world has been in an unusual deep freeze. The short term effect of the brutal weather and the weak dollar has been gas prices at $2.79 per gallon. It looks like gas prices will top $3.00 again by the summer.
