Did you happen to see the sky yesterday? The way the clouds were so defined while whispies were floating around them was so incredible! Ever since Nicaragua God has really been showing me how to appreciate what he has created. Look around and think about the intricate design behind EVERYTHING. currently i’m looking out my window and i can see a huge maple tree. This tree is made up of trillions [plus some!] of molecules that fit perfectly together to form what we call a “tree.” the leaves are filled with veins to transport nutrients that are gained through the thin walls of the roots. These leaves then change color in accordance with what kinds of minerals they are given and their environment. Even sticks that are dying are made up of trillions of rings of cells. No two trees in the entire world are alike.

To me, that just speaks volumes of God’s unique creativity and love for detail. And this holy God who should [!VOIMP!] us out of existance because of our sin chooses to sacrifice so that he can show himself to us. how AWESOME.

Jesus is beautiful. I challenge you, and myself, to get close enough to his face so that we can begin to see how truly beautiful he is.
