Day 2 of my beautiful journey.

Wow... Day 2 hit me like a ton of bricks... I've decided to commit to not just viewing Derry's posts on this journey but everyone's. Which I realize my become a huge time commitment. But after today I know it is exactly where my time should be spent.

After reading 7 entries on beauty that people found around them I found it difficult to hold back the tears. How many moments of life have I wasted on negativity and pessimism? What have I done with my time? There is so much beauty in this world that our Creator put here for us, and we are squandering it! As Jamie mentioned in his blog this song needs to be my prayer for the next 60 days. God give me your eyes, just for even one second, so I can see. Today I found this project beautiful.

In science we have been reading only the notes to a poem; in Christianity we find the poem itself. - C.S. Lewis

if you want to follow the others as well I have a list to the left.

Oh! and I almost forgot my friend Jamie saw this and shared her beautiful moment with me... Ill post it below.
@ my beautiful moment...standing in my living room after cleaning it & relishing the smell. Even as my dogs made a mess.

  2. First of all - Thank you for commenting on my post. I'm looking forward to this challenge, and also finding people that are on the same journey.

    Secondly, I love that people are focusing on the beauty of Christ. Can you imagine what our world would look like if more people did this? I'm excited!
