Ordinary or Extraordinary?

"ORDINARY - You sit on your couch watching TV - that's ordinary. You work around the clock not because you have to feed your family, but for no other reason than to park a better car your garage - that's ordinary. 

EXTRAORDINARY - You get up from the couch to play with your kids or you give your time and energy to help educate a prisoner or lend an ear to an elderly person - that's extraordinary.

WHY? Because you are GIVING. Every gift breaks the barrier between the sacred and the mundane and floods the mundane with the sacred."

When a gift is given, life becomes extraordinary 
because God's own gift giving 
flows through the giver.

Ordinary or Extraordinary?  Are you a River or a Reservoir?
Todays "thought" from Miroslav Volf, Free of Charge.
