Living Spiritual Rhythms–May 7

Drawing conclusions from solely one perspective is reductionistic. By contrast, Christians want to recognize that reality has to be viewed with eyes open to a multiplicity of intricate angles and variable vistas. Whether climbing a high Alpine peak or walking through a city, much of what we perceive will need to be engaged through a skillful attention to detail that may first escape us. Looking again, perhaps, should be a key feature of the Christian worldview, as it is founded on the exceedingly complex character of the creator God, who loves and cares for the whole of what has been made.
