Beauty Day 8

Find one beautiful thing every day and take a photo of it.

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

 

Day 8 Children’s Faith

The children led

the worship singing

this morning at church.

The adults sang along with them

happier than they have ever sung.

I was happy

to see all these adults

so happy.

Day 7 Pink

My granddaughter says

her favorite color is pink.

She’s three.

She loves to wear her brilliant pink tutus

jump on the bed, make forts, and tumble off the couch.

She’s never heard that “pink” for girls

is not pc.

Day 6 Anticipation

Looking forward to seeing

this beautiful ballet

with a friend

brings excitement, hope, and joy to my day.

So it is for Christians who look forward

to meeting Christ face to face.

Day 5 My Special Friend

We’ve both been sick with flu and cold going on two weeks.

Today came our regular Thursday breakfast out—Yay!!

This means McDonald’s.

But I like Monster Biscuits.

We agree the seats are hard at this other place

and the ambience cold.

So we planned our tactic the night before.

He would bring a brown bag and the coupons.

We’d hit the local competitor, then over to McDonald’s.

Once there he sat down with the brown bag

the padded seats and the brighter ambience

while I ordered the senior coffee.

We pulled this off! What a guy!

Day 4 A Word from God

Beauty, like manna, must be found fresh.

Yesterday’s beauty doesn’t satisfy today’s need.

This morning as I awakened early,

I turned on my phone and saw this:

4-word-of-god

The first sight that greeted my waking eyes,

and I knew this was a message spoken to me by God.

It totally fits my current situation,

And I take it as his word of hope and strength for me.

His affectionate love for me just melts my heart.

Day 3 Christmas Tree

My grown daughter has resented my Christian beliefs

ever since her independence. She resists my faith in a variety of ways.

Into our family was born a little girl, who is the great love of us all.

She is three years old.

This year, my daughter and her husband put up a Christmas tree

a volunteer from their backyard

and they decorated their house with lights.

This is the most beautiful Christmas tree I have ever seen,

and it’s not about me.

Day 2 Sleep

I picked up a bad flu and cold while visiting family.

After about one week, just as I was getting past the extreme discomfort

and the cough was subsiding,

I lay down at 10 pm and didn’t wake up until 4 am.

I hadn’t coughed once, and I hadn’t even rolled over, not even once.

It was so smooth.

It was the best sleep I ever remember.

I can’t live without friends. These are just a few of the beautiful people in my life.
