The wind just unexpectedly shut the door of my cabin. Eerie. Can hear the stream running by, faint call of waves, and ribbon of whistling from birds ever so often.
Beauty, what is it? In our eyes & Gods. The passage that says "Man looks to the outward appearance but God looks to the heart comes to mind." A pastor once told a story about a woman who was the most beautiful, mesmerizing, lovely creature in heaven who all could not stop looking at. God explained that no one noticed her on earth, and she gave all her time to giving to others. Through that God formed the most beautiful spirit within her. Hidden beauty. How do we reshape our eyes to see and grow to love and learn from hidden beauty? It amazes me how our society seeks beauty, it attracts draws us gives people an unfair advantage. Yet what good does it do? We're all just looking for radical, unquestioning, all accepting love. The kind written about in the Gospel. But it's hard to identify that craving and seek love from God. For some reason, acceptance and love from this world just seems much more important. Learning the truth of Psalm 139 everyday more and more.
