Newness
When the young man is courting a woman, he
always opens the door of his car for her. But this
practice doesn't last very long.
Sometimes though, you still see the husband
opening the car door for his wife.
But that could only mean two things.
One, the car may be new. Or two, the wife
may be new.
Why does this happen?
Early on in the marriage, the man is greeted
from work with the dog barking and his wife
giving him his slippers. But a year later, he is
welcomed by the dog bringing him the slippers
and the wife barking.
Again, why does this happen?
Because we don't recognize the mystery of
God in each other.
We forget how beautiful each person is - and
how each person deserves our respect. We forget
that we walk amidst Tabernacles of God, Holy
Prophets, and Glorious Kings.

Lord, let me recognize You in the people I deal with everyday. Give me humility to learn from them.
