His Glory

Why are we surrounded by beauty? People, flowers, colors, acts, feelings. There are a ton of things around us filled with beauty. Such a beauty that was created by the only true beautiful one, God. He has filled out lives with a wild array of emotions and color. He has always had every intention for us to live a full life. A life warmed with love, a life tickled by laughter, a life filled with the little things like clouds in the sky and daisies at our feet, a life with a warm sun after a long winter and a crisp autumn breeze filled with leaves, a life with a white blanket of snow that can take your breath away, a life filled with the feel of summer rain soaking your skin, a life filled with his presence and the joy of his spirit, a life filled by little pieces that display his glory and splendor. Every green blade of grass and every bright colored tree frog shows the creativity and wonder of the one who created each and everyone of us. Are we not blessed to be loved and desired by this creator? Thank you Jesus

He has created the most beautiful mountains and extravagant flowers. How much more time did he spend on you? Don't believe for a second that the king doesn't find you as his beautiful, amazing child.

There is No Such Thing as Cold

There is no such thing as cold. There is only a lack of heat. I think there are things like this in our lives. Things like loneliness is just a lack of knowing God's desire to be near you or hopelessness being a lack of God's grace for you. feeling pointless is a lack of your identity in him. Doubt a lack of faith. So be filled with the king and watch his fulfillment warm your heart and soul like a warm cup of cocoa warms you. Let his spirit penetrate and touch EVERY aspect of your life and be filled by his purpose and love for you. No this may not fix everything right away. but it's because we are imperfect beings, it's not because he is not an imperfect God.

much love,
Rebecca
