The holiness of everyday life

How does being constantly in His presence because of His grace (Epiphany) affects your daily life?

It is humbling to remember that I - sinner, rebel, criminal, undeserving of anything good - am constantly allowed to be in His presence. It is crazy humbling to know that I get to experience a constant Epiphany through the means of His grace because of His Beauty. 

It is also scary.

The text makes perfect sense,

10 

Now therefore, O kings, be wise;
    be warned, O rulers of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear,
    and rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the Son,
    lest he be angry, and you perish in the way,
    for his wrath is quickly kindled.
Blessed are all who take refuge in him. Psalm 2

But this persistent Epiphany is also a real place of hope, delight, and fulfillment mainly because it sanctifies every moment in my daily life, no matter how trivial it may look on the surface; simple moments, like brewing coffee to enjoy it with my friends and family, now have the glorious dimension my sin and transgressions have taken from them. 

Eden is restored; glory is expected.

What about you? How does this persistent Epiphany affect your daily life?
