Aha!

Maybe the most ordinary things in life come packaged in a shell of mystery.

To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
— Colossians 1:27

Running along and a flash of inspiration strikes. Reading along and a new way of understanding opens up. Where do these epiphanies come from? I don't need a rational explanation. I welcome them as a sign of Providence, a gift of grace. I save space for mystery in everything. Even the most ordinary things in life might come packaged in a shell of mystery. Come, Holy Spirit.
