How to See God in Everything, Everyday (and How to Respond)

“It is good to guard the secret of a king, but gloriously to reveal
the works of God, and with fitting honor to acknowledge him.” –
Tobit 12:7 How often do you acknowledge the works of God? How often
do you recognize what he’s doing in your life? In this passage from
Tobit, the Archangel Raphael is encouraging us to pay attention to
the works of God—not only in our lives, but in the lives of those
around us. He is constantly present, even in our most mundane
tasks. But how often do we notice his works, note his presence and
goodness, and declare it to the world? Today, Fr. Mike encourages
us to acknowledge the presence of God in our lives through 3 steps:
noticing, noting, and declaring. This is just an introduction to
discovering God in your everyday life. To go deeper, check out
