God in the world

I have been reading "Christ plays in ten thousands places" by Eugene Peterson while I am enjoying holyday in Spain. He is stressing the fact that God is involved in the world, in history. The other day he helped me to realise that there is plentiful supply of strawberries in Spain at the moment. I have been look for strawberries in the wrong places, – the places of yesterday i.e. last year. But God is with us on vacation as well and he has blessed us with wonderful strawberries even though it seemed to me at first that the season was over. God is in the world and he cares for the small things in life. Life consists of small things. Christ really plays in ten thousands places even when I am on vacation in Spain! I like to take part in that exciting play of Christ in everyday life.
