Welcome to The Beauty of the Lord blog! I think the best way to begin blog adventure is to state the reason for its existence. Psalm 90: 17 puts it best:
"And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands for us; yes establish the work of our hands."
This is the precise purpose of this blog: to put the beauty of the Lord on display! No matter where you live or what your daily routine looks like, God's design and handy work can be seen - if we just are on the lookout. Recently I have been inspired by the insignificant. I have been gripped by little things. So often God blesses us in the ordinary ; in still small voices rather than neon signs.
This blog may have a few profound things to communicate but most likely it will be filled with the ordinary ways God uses to show us His beauty. May this be the true desire of our hearts so that we invest in what really counts. "Establish the work of our hands for us; yes, establish the work of our hands!"

Oh, I like this, "This blog may have a few profound things to communicate but most likely it will be filled with the ordinary ways God uses to show us His beauty". Isn't that what faith is really all about? Not the big "tah dah" moments...there are too few of those, but the real beauty is in the nitty-gritty of The Walk.
I look forward to reading more (perhaps some quotes from the "Back of the
Bathroom Door"?).
