A simple Morning Glory bloom is beautiful for two reasons: 1. God made it and 2. God made us with the capacity to see beauty. Today while swimming in the apartment complex pool, I struck up a conversation with a person who was questioning whether God loved them. And then they answered their own question with, "But I am a good person therefore God must love me." I pointed out God's love doesn't depend on how good we are. If that was the case few of us would be worthy.
In fact God's love for us depends on his character not ours. God is love. Our beauty as humans comes from who created us ! We are loved because at the very core of God's being is love! Lets use our God given gift of seeing the beauty in God's creation and in the people around us.
