God's Beauty

God’s beauty can be found everywhere. You can find it in a smile, a sunset, an abandoned house, a misty fog, a stormy rainfall, or a tiny leaflet. Life often becomes hectic and fast paced. It becomes a hurried race to a finish line not worth running towards, because we do not take a moment to enjoy. We do not take a moment to notice the intricate delicacies that God has put into our path. Where do you find your intricate delicacies? I find mine in a butterfly freely floating ahead. I find it in the rustic fall. I find it in the galloping horses that are next door to my house. Take a moment. Pause. Breathe in the beauty God has put into your path.

Breath of God

The rustling of fall

Beacons me

Much like your spirit

Inviting me to enter in

 

Fragments of the light glisten

Onto the leaves

Transferring its warmth

Onto the lake

 

You reveal your beauty to me

In this place

With one breath

I breathe you in

 

The wind pushes the leaves

I watch

As they glide steadily

Into the lake

 

Nature coos

Calling my heart to listen

With each beat

It listens

Feeling your spirit

Touch  my skin

I am thankful...

With Thanksgiving being around the corner, I decided to make a list of the things I am thankful for. I try to do this every day, because it helps me to keep things in prespective. It is a constant reminder of God’s love for me and helps me to be appreciative for all of the blessings in my life. I suggest you make a list of your own.

2) My parents. They are always there for me, and I am very appreciative that I have them in my life.
