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.

Beauty Day 157 Day 10
I’d be lying if I said the most beautiful part of the day
was anything other than reading Psalm 130
Psalms in this little book are arranged in groups of 5
I find them all related Psalms 10, 40, 70, 100 and 130
By the time I got to this 5th psalm
the Lord was speaking directly to my heart
about my situation in him
and his great love and provision for me
in Christ
same as for all those Old Testament and New Testament believers
who believe in him in God
and place their hope and trust where it rightfully belongs
It was a good quiet day
the car remained parked
I barely left the house
while restfully attempting to stave off
the coughing cold I picked up from family
during my recent visit
a very perfect kind of quiet restful day
in which lots of big stuff happened
because I made time to listen
and didn’t allow other news to distract me
