About this Blog

I oftentimes find myself feeling as if I am drowning in a sea of brokenness. Financial strains, familial tensions, and the like, oftentimes distract me from who I am in Christ, and furthermore, what I am called to do as His servant. Scripture repeatedly teaches that a part of my calling is to offer up my body as a living sacrifice, and this includes giving thanks for the blessings in my life to the loving God who bestows them. My life needs to be one of joy, one that actively pursues beauty and appreciates all things, even those that are commonly overlooked.
With this blog, I hope to take myself and anyone who reads it on a journey in which each and every day I find something to do, or see, or make that is beautiful and can be deeply appreciated. Then, I will give the beauty I find as an offering of praise and thanks to the Lord by writing about it here on this blog. Check back each day for a new post! I hope that what you read here will inspire you to appreciate life more and actively pursue the beauty that surrounds you, even in the midst of brokenness.

On my drive home...

I'm driving home, and this is what I see: 



Now, granted, I was driving, so this is what Google images gave me after the fact. Nevertheless, this is what I saw! It was beautiful! I was suddenly exponentially more grateful for living in the Pacific Northwest, where I can see the beautiful Cascade mountains on my drive home.

Snow capped mountains. Blue skies. Evergreen trees. I love it.

Thank you, Lord, for this beautiful scene on my way home.
