Breathtaking and Beautiful

 The fallen rose petal with water droplets drapes me with  loveliness.

Even if I’m experiencing another bad hair day

Even if I’m feeling unnoticed, sinful, rejection, and unloved.

Standing in the path of the sunshine warms my heart, making me feel treasured.

The crisp, stars that shine in the pitch darkness make me feel tiny and significant simultaneously. Is. 40:26

The sunrise’s fragrant colors that transform the sky washing away the darkness give me the peace from God and making me feel beautiful.

Throughout the day and into the night God’s fingerprints are molded all over creation.

The rolling thunder teaches me God’s power.

The acorn teaches me surrender.

The wind teaches me that I must trust God even when I don’t understand what He’s doing or can’t grasp His plan.

His messages are given to me all day long

Through nature

Through people.

The person that’s difficult to deal with and drives my patience could be God honing away my selfish chunks and sculpting me into a more patient woman.

The difficult season that God’s walking me through will show me more of His faithfulness that I wouldn’t have experienced otherwise.

But sometimes I become so focused on me and my mess that I miss God’s presence.

I miss what He is trying to teach me.

So, even when you feel lost and unafraid sinful and broken

Be still and lean into God’s presence. Repent and trust Him.

He is God, Lord, Redeemer, and Savior.

Let your heart be still and let His overwhelming love wash over you.

“Be still, and know that I am God;

I will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth”! Psalm 46:10.

During my crazy life I must take time to be still and know God’s sovereignty. Regardless of how I feel Jesus is God and worthy to be praised.
