Look for Beauty

Today I want to encourage you to look for beauty around you. It is easy to perceive the negative and yet there are examples of God's goodness and beauty all around us. Beauty is like a smile to your soul. Scripture tells us to think on good things or things of beauty. Beauty is not just the obvious of face and form, yet can be found in kindness, honesty, flowers in unexpected places, a smile instead of a frown. This is a generalization but you understand what I mean.

Life has a way of throwing rocks in your path. I'm asking you to pick them up and build something great with them. Look at them as free resources! You know... lemons make lemonade.

You are a smart person, well able to make a positive out of the not so positive.

Life is calling and there IS beauty all around you. Look for it.

Phillipians 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Hi Debbie,

Great message. I "see" beauty in my son's voice, in the sandy feeling of dirt drying under my fingernails (I've been out "turning up" dirt, planting flowers), and more... when I take the time to focus on such splendor! Thanks for the reminder to "think on good things"!
Kristi,thank you for your upbeat attitude. I am glad you are feeling the sun on your face and praying for restored warmth via your utilities on the home front:)
