This Very Special Way

Just what is this very special way he keeps talking about -- how Jesus will come in a very special way and we will respond in a similar fashion?  What makes it so special?  How will either of us know it is occurring?  How does very special differ from just plain special?  Does expectation exceed what can be realized?  Is this wishful thinking; will some of us miss it?  Will it become less special for becoming more familiar?  Whatever it is, could we say it a different way?
