Sliver of New

I live in the temporal
In a physical reality
And yet my soul senses his sovereignty.

When my actions are quieted
And my heart tuned to grace
I feel the orchestration of eternity.
Perhaps, I even hear it sometimes.

So what appears commonplace
Is in essence a sliver of redemption.

Reconciliation.
Wholeness.
Making all new.

And so I rejoice in both extraordinary and mundane.
For rich purpose inhabits both.

That we might have eyes to see the imminence of a new heaven and new earth in all things.

I mean, what if?

"Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth...He who was seated on the throne said, I am making everything new..."
Revelation 21:1,5
