Beauty

(Apple tree in bloom at my in-laws house)

There is so much beauty around us. if we only take the time to notice it. You can make a conscience effort to look for the essence and therefore develop an appreciation for the beautiful things in life. Your days will seem a lot less harried, I promise you. Beauty has a way of totally capturing our senses, making us forget the fact that the car stalled on the way to work this morning, that the kids spilled chocolate milk on the carpet, that the workload keeps piling up. For a few brief shining moments, nothing else seems to matter. And the wonderful thing about beauty is that we can store it in our minds to be played over and over again. ~Lucy Swindoll

Looking for beauty in the daily simple things. Sometimes it's hard not to get swallowed up in mess and forget to have my eyes opened to the things I should. Thank you God for reminding me of the beauty all around!

He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end. I know that nothing is better for them then to rejoice and to do good in their lives. Ecclesiastes 3:11-12
