“Each time we say a berachah, we say to ourselves, ‘Pay attention. Something awesome is happening all around us.’ And then we realize that the ordinary world conceals mysteries.”
…
“When we say God is everywhere, it does not mean that God is invisible. It means that if we look closely, we can find God’s presence hidden everywhere because God created everything. And, because God is hidden inside everything, all things are connected to one another.”
From The Book of Miracles, by Lawrence Kushner
