Beauty

As I strain to concentrate on the priest and words of the liturgy…out of the corner of my eye…the glimpse of a palomino pony tail involuntary draws my attention to a stunning young woman with flawless skin. She is impeccably dressed, standing tall and exhibiting all the magnificence of Our Creator’s handy work. I can’t help but marvel at the beauty and struggle to suppress any primordial urge that’s brought on by my darker side.

I wonder if women have any idea of the power they possess?

What an awesome God I have.

What awesome beauty and splendor He shows me.

Thank you dear Lord for the eyesight to enjoy Your handy work.
Please Lord Jesus, open the eyes of my heart that I might see the beauty in all Your people, not just the ones who wear it on the outside.
Please Lord, help me remember that You are the author and creator of all beauty.


Amen
