The grandeur of God is found in the simplicity of love and love’s every day expressions.  It is easy for us to look for the big events and overtures for signs of importance and value.  We do not often see the profound and sacred nature of a simple interaction with another human being.  I am reminded often that the world is big and loud and my ego is drawn to that.  It tells me the little stuff doesn’t matter, especially if no one but me sees it.  But how many hearts are needed to be witnesses to love and be affected by it?  Why do we not see the hallowing in eye contact and a kind touch on the hand?  Is not love enough within itself that any expression of it make the experience hallowed?  What would it take to make hallowing an everyday multiple times a day occurrence?  God sees all presences of love as hallowing.  What blinders do we have on that we take it for granted?  What would we need to let go of to be present to the hallowing love brings in the small and seemingly innocuous ways? Maybe it is just not as hard as we make it out to be.  God has designed us out of love and the reason we know a hallowing experience when it happens is because of the recognition of ourselves in it. If we are open to the many ways love shows up that are outside our expectations, the more hallowing events we will witness.
