Be Thou My Vision

This life comes at us fast. The push and pull. Do and Don't. Yes and No. Here and There. And everything else in between.

There is so much to think about. Oh so many wonderful, horrible, exciting, meticulous, beautiful things to ponder. 


So many... Dreams to dream. Adventures to conquer. Fears to overcome. Hallelujahs to cry. Statements to declare. Songs to sing. Questions to uncover. Thoughts to sort. Disappointments to heal. Stories to write.


There are so many dimensions to this life we live. So many seasons. So many circumstances.

Everything we know becomes past. The unknown becomes the present. The future is a mystery.

And yet, as we lie here and think, and question, and hope, and understand, we come to a new perspective. That God is in the little things. God is in the big things. God is. And that is only the beginning.  


We slowly grasp the possibility that there is more.

 No greater call, no life at all, but to love You."

We come to the realization that in reality, this seemingly big life is nothing more than a small, fragile object in the hands of our Father. 

So Yes. Take in this life. Make the most of it. Live it to its full extension. Love. Be loved. Grow deeper. Have integrity.  But be something more. 

"Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light."

God give us eyes to see, ears to hear, and a heart that's willing.

To Live.

Hiya people! SOoooo the reason I started this blog was to have a place to share what I believe are Beautiful  Things. You can either fly through life and pass by beauty.. or you can take time to smell the roses and discover life as its meant to be. Life full of peace, joy, love, and more importantly God. 


The Westminster catechism states "Man’s chief end is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever".   In Him is life, depth, happiness, grace, and beauty. When we discover God for ourselves, we begin to discover the depth and reason behind life, happinessetc. We can experience all of these things to the fullest and can find joy in everything we do. 

So I hope my blog will give you a chance to step back and catch a breather. Possibly even INSPIRE you to do that more often and savor every single moment, memory, and blessing. Why not make the make the most of your life ya know? So taste it. Savor it. Devour it. And yes. I am in the mood for brownies smothered in dark chocolate. Know why? Because YOLO!!!!!
