six: transforming

I went to see my friends from Cali play the Starlite Room last nite.
It amazed me how a few surfers from San Diego could take a bar and transform it into a sacred place...
A dirty, smoke-filled room,
filled with the stench of sweat and other unfriendly odours,
and morph it into a sanctuary.
A sweet space to meet
and be met
by One infinitely greater than our finite understanding.
And I realized
God does this everyday
in the lives of the broken
the fallen
the sin-filled...
transforming them into temples -
tabernacles -
places to meet
and be met
by Him.
