"Your eyes will see the King in his beauty and view a land that stretches far"
- Isaiah 33:17
As ponder onto who I think I have been throughout my life I see a mixture of so many things. I have always been told that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Is that true? Do we all see different things as beautiful? If we do then why does our worldly views tell us only way to see beauty?
These questions are questions that every woman seeks to find the answers to on a daily basis. I know for me it is a daily struggle to seek beauty in the eyes of my beholder. The almight man who made me exactly how I am, and would never change a thing about me. I know all the right things to think. I know exactly how he see's me. Yet, when I look in the mirror I do not always choose to believe the PURE and HONEST truth.
God can and does put you in certain places of life to seek out different things that he wants to show you. I have been given the oppertunity to have a camera that not only captures memories but I feel captures beauty. Could it be that he is trying to show me how to see beauty from a different angle? Rather than looking to the latest colothing line, music, popular worldly views is he trying to show me that Beauty is in what I see rather than what others see? This is the pondering thought for the week.
I find myself surrounded by people and things that in one look I can see complete Beauty in. In those moments I understand completly why he created it to be here on earth with us. If nothing other than to make us slow down and take a moment to look at something precious and lovley so that we may have a moment to just not think about the crazy hectic lifestyle we all tend to live.
Could what Isaiah write bring a new light of truth? If we look into and are intrawled in our Kings beauty, will we see the land he has created to be beautiful too? If he created that for me to see as beautiful, could I be created to one day see myself as beautiful too?
Beautiful thoughts and beautiful pictures! I love pondering life with you, best friend! :)
