Sunrise by the Lochview Tree

320|366...In the midst of the chaos here tonight I'm choosing to focus on the sunrise by the #lochviewtree and this beautiful quote. "It was sunsets that taught me that beauty sometimes only lasts for a couple of moments, and it was sunrises that showed me that all it takes is patience to experience it all over again."

102|366...We caught this rainbow the other day out the attic window by the #lochviewtree There is something in me that longs to see beauty. I think this longing is in all of us but our culture struggles so much to define this deep need. I came across this quote by Tim Keller that I keep rereading... “It fits to glorify God — it not only fits reality, because God is infinitely and supremely praiseworthy, but it fits us as nothing else does. All the beauty we have looked for in art or faces or places — and all the love we have looked for in the arms of other people — is only fully present in God himself... “Jonathan Edwards once said: ‘God is glorified not only by His glory’s being seen, but by its being rejoiced in.’ It is not enough to say, ‘I guess he is God, so I have got to knuckle under.’ You have to see his beauty. Glorifying God does not mean obeying him only because you have to. It means to obey him because you want to — because you are attracted to him, because you delight in him... We need beauty.”

Good Morning...

So thankful to have caught this glimpse of the glory of God this morning...I didn't notice the deer until I was in the midst of taking the picture...
