Sometimes I think I have gone Through the Looking-Glass with Alice, there are so many today who, like Lewis Carroll’s White Queen, are able to believe as many as six impossible things before breakfast. A few can handle more than six! It doesn’t matter if there is no basis for the truth of any of those things nor does it seem to matter if there is contradiction between them.
Today I’ve been doing laundry. Everyday work reminds me of the role of simple, ordinary, everyday things in helping me remember that I live as the creature before the Creator (to use Francis Schaeffer’s phrase!). He is the One who created, and the One who orders my days. I do the laundry, and He upholds the universe.
