Today on The Morning Thing, we focused on Serendipity Day! We looked at it through a Christian lens as we know God works in incredible and surprising ways, and we came up with 8 things each of us can work on to be more open to this kind of God!
Recognizing and being open to a serendipitous God — one who moves in unexpected, surprising, and grace-filled ways — involves cultivating a mindset, a heart posture, and some daily practices that create space for divine presence in the ordinary and the unforeseen.
Here are some of the best ways to open yourself to this:
1. Practice Attentiveness
“Earth’s crammed with heaven, and every common bush afire with God; but only he who sees takes off his shoes.”
— Elizabeth Barrett Browning
2. Let Go of the Need for Control
3. Cultivate Wonder and Curiosity
4. Engage in Reflective Prayer or Journaling
5. Trust in Divine Timing
6. Surround Yourself with Stories of Serendipity
7. Be Willing to Act on Gentle Nudges
8. Hold Theology Loosely, Hold God Tightly
