Beauty

"Weak is the effort of my heart and cold my warmest thought: But, when I see thee as thou art, I'll praise thee as I ought" - John Newton

You can find me these days at Barnes and Noble with the word of God in front of me.. and a cup of "defining sense of self" in my hand. (A tall vanilla chai) ;)

Lately, the Lord has been showing me {BEAUTY}

Beauty in the sky..
the rain..
in people
in eyes..
in books
their words..
the songs
of the birds..
in music
in poetry..
in creation
and all its glory..

There have been moments in the past when I have "appreciated" beauty in these
things... for example, the beauty of a sunset. I can remember many times just pulling
over on the side of the road to look and watch the sunset. And appreciated that moment.
But lately.. I feel like the Lord has been showing me MORE. What I feel seems to be a
deeper gut of admiration than just appreciation.

I hope this never leaves.

Jesus is showing me more and more of Himself.
It's indeed, liberating.
