Beauty Is In The Eyes Of The Beholder

Isaiah 40:6 – Shout that people are like the grass. Their beauty fades as quickly as the flowers in a field.

Beauty is held within the eyes of the beholder. In fact, aren’t flowers attractive when plucked?  Don’t they hold their shape and create pleasant aromas in whatever setting they are brought into. However, as time progresses, don’t the petals start to fall and the stems begin to droop. Are the flowers still beautiful? See God doesn’t look at the present, he looks at the future. When we were young, we were young and spry. When we grew older we slowed and became seasoned. Do we still exhibit beauty then? Well, does the the sun not create an amalgam of breathtaking colors when it sets or rises in the sky. Does art not inspire creativity and ignite a person’s soul. Is Gods wonderful grace and mercy not the paradigm for loveliness. If beauty gives deep satisfaction to the mind, then may beauty take the perfect form of Gods love (1John 4:13) and purity for all the world to see. Amen
