There is #beauty all around us especially this time of the year as everything has #fresh new leaves with beautiful #blooms. Growing up on the Texas panhandle we didn’t have many trees or blossoms without pampering them with extra water and care. So…this enabled me to I have a full view of the magnificent color of the spectacular sunsets. Through the years now I have lived in the mountains, by the seashore, on the plains, in desert basins,which have been in cities and farming communities that enabled me to see God’s beautiful creations wherever He has placed me. I realized all of this is a reflection of the Creator. Zech.9:17 “How great is GOD’S BEAUTY” Isaiah 33:17 “Your eyes shall see HIM IN HIS BEAUTY” 1Chron.16:29 “Worship the LORD IN THE BEAUTY OF HOLINESS” As we spend time with friends, we tend to take on some of their demeanor in our speech, outlook, and makeup. I had two unusual experiences last year after turning eighty. I was in a hardware store when one of the lady employees came to help me with a purchase and she said, “You are beautiful.” I said, “thank you!” In all my years, I had never had anyone say that – much less now. Then several months later, I was standing in line at the post office when a young man walked in to stand behind me and he said, “Madam, I just want to tell you that you are beautiful” Now I know God works in mysterious ways; however, my after thought to their commits was that they may have noticed a reflection of my Lord with whom I spend the most time! “LORD takes pleasure in His people: HE WILL BEAUTIFY THE MEEK WITH SALVATION” Ps. 149:4 “LET THE BEAUTY OF THE LORD BE UPON US” Ps.90:17
THE LIVING GOD – BEAUTY
