He reflects on how both art and faith teach us how to pay attention to the remarkableness right in front of us, to watch for the greatness in the ordinary, and to use our imaginations to see the greatness in others and love them well.Pay attention, says Buechner. Listen to the call of a bird or the rush of the wind, to the people who flow in and out of your life. The ordinary points you to the extraordinary God who created and loves all of creation, including you. Pay attention to these things as if your life depends upon it. Because, of course, it does. As you learn to pay attention to your life and what God is doing in it, you will uncover the plot of your life's story and the sacred opportunity to connect with the Divine in each moment.Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Frederick BuechnerPublisher: ZondervanPublished: 10/03/2017ISBN: 9780310351900Pages: 128Weight: 0.26lbsSize: 7.90h x 5.20w x 0.40d
