Every season has its own unique beauty…
Treasure that can only be found in that season, that day, that moment…
If we only have eyes to see…
If we only choose to look.
In every season of life,
seasons of joy, seasons of sorrow, seasons of peace, seasons of trial,
there is beauty.
The laughter and ease of the season of joy,
the consolation and comfort He gives in the season of sorrow,
the calm and serenity of a season of peace,
the treasure He gives in the dark seasons.
If we only have eyes to see…
If we only choose to look…
Beauty, His Beauty,
in every season, every day, every moment.

ReplyDeleteAs I so often do, I read your list of thanksgiving and nodded my head in agreement time and time again.
This week, this one particularly spoke to me:
"Seeing God working out His plans and purposes in our children’s lives"
Absolutely breathtaking. I'm so thankful I have found your blog through 1000 gifts. I started the journey of writing the blessings today. Love your heart of thanks. Blessings.
