Hide & Seek

Ever have a time when one day just seems to run into the next. Regular things happen...nothing special? I was sitting in a parking lot tonight...looking around...Starbucks on the corner, an ambulance drove by, people chatting near the car next to me. Thinking about the past few days, going to the dentist for a chipped tooth, grocery shopping, getting an appointment for a car repair, cleaning out computer files. And as I thought about how ordinary all of this seems...I realized that maybe that's how Jacob felt when he went to Bethel. The scripture in Genesis 12 says he went to that place and didn't realize God was there.

Where is God in those ordinary times? In those boring, nothing special kind of days? Is God there?
