Nothing is small!
No lily muffled hum of summer bee
But finds some coupling with the spinning stars;
No pebble at your foot but proves a sphere;
… Earth’s crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God’
But only he who sees takes off his shoes.
The only miracles of Jesus’ thirty silent years were miracles of love, of obedience, of duty, of beautiful living. When we remember who he was, the Son of God, in whom all divine fullness dwelt, his making no manifestation of glory those years was as great a miracle as when at length he began to do unusual things.
