Extraordinary is always in the ordinary

I believe Chuck Swindoll once said that attitude is everything, at least I think it was him.  Are you looking at the glass as half empty or half full, or are you so busy waiting for your ship to come in that you miss the truck that was just there, or....well, you get the picture.

Folks have also said that extraordinary is nothing but ordinary with a little "extra".  I guess, the older I get, and the more I grow in my relationship to the Lord, I have started to see the extraordinary that God has put in just about everything.  I don't think ORDINARY is in God's vocabulary.  With the technology available to scientists today, this has been more than proven.  Nothing was made or created in a hap-hazard way.  From the glories of the universe to the "simplicity" of a blade of grass.  WOW! 

Yet, in all these things, He has made provision for us.  He gives us everything, we turn our backs, we want to do things OUR way, we make other things the center of our daily existence.  We don't trust His promises to us, so we cause ourselves all kinds of problems instead of waiting on Him.  Most of all He sent His Son, Jesus, so even the worst of sinners can turn to Him and be saved.  What did we do to deserve this?  Not a thing.  Why would He do it?

THAT IS WHAT GOD IS LIKE!
