365 Project Day 194: Something Beautiful

July 14, 2011

For You

Canon 5D Mark ll, 100 2.8 macro, 2.8 aperture, 1/60 shutter, 500 ISO

To lighten your burden, to ease your journey, to help lift your heart and your eyes toward heaven, I have brought you something beautiful. Sometimes it is all we need to be reminded that God is near, that the road will not always be this hard, and that we are loved. Something lovely, sweet, delicate. Softness that smooths out the sharp edges, relieving the intensity. A laugh, a hug, the warmth of someone’s hand in yours. A glance from one who understands you, a sweet surprise from a friend, the smell of something wonderful baking. All gifts from a Father who loves you deeply.

Embracing Hope

Things will not always be this difficult. You are loved by the Giver of all good gifts. Yes, loved and adored. Fussed over. Focused upon. His eye is on you and His heart is for you.

So here, take this gift as a reminder. You are loved.

You are something beautiful. Exquisite. One of a kind. Rare. A masterpiece.

Loved.

Psalm 139:14 ~ “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;  your works are wonderful,  I know that full well.”

 

Exquisite
