My Baby and I

Undeniable Beauty

Today as I was on a bus from Madrid to Vigo I had the opportunity to enjoy a quiet ride in the presence of a majestic nature that was everything but silent. Tall mountains lit by the sun and cover in snow. Perfect valleys of green and purple. It was as if God was showing off his workmanship.

But there was something that caught my eye in a special way. As I contemplated the hard rocks and the walls of stone I could see small bursts of life. Small and bright flowers standing on their own. The source of their beauty did not come from the hard and dry environment they were at, but from deeper within.

God created us with that in mind. No matter what our location is, among dry people at work, among dysfunctional members of our family, jail, no matter where, we can reach within and find him to give us beauty impossible to be denied.

Can others see your beauty where you are at? I surely hope that when anyone will see me I might be projecting more than my own rubbish and nonsense. It is my prayer for you and for me that all may see the beautiful life of Christ when they see us.
