“In Christian thought, the one great practical truth of the incarnation is that the ordinary is no longer what it appears.”
-Lane

This quote points out that God not only masks himself in wilderness, as we have studied in class, but also in man. Based on this I think I am amazed at how man is actually a part of God’s great creation. Although God set us apart from the rest of nature this act of masking himself in human flesh, reminds me that our bodies are just flesh. This body is just like every other part of the earth, here today gone tomorrow. Maybe in this act that is what God wanted to remind us of, how temporary we are and how great he is.
