Eyjafjallajokull

In April off 2010 a volcanic ash cloud from Iceland’s Eyjafjallajokull volcano crisscrossed the skies of Europe, causing the grounding thousands of airplanes and passengers.

But when the ash passed, a distinct side benefit appeared. Suddenly the skies were a brighter blue, immaculate and cleansed. It was, one newspaper described, as if someone had torn a veil away, revealing the true colors of heaven.

Then slowly the skies filled with other distractions, vapor trails, puffy white clouds, and thunderheads distracted our memory of the liquid bright blue and our lives moved forward

The experiences we call “coincidences” are similar.
They come suddenly, changing our lives and leaving behind an uncontaminated revelation of the nearness of God, of His love, of His truth.
Then life moves on and we tend to forget the clarity of our experience in the crush of life’s activity
