incredible beauty

viewing different sites that ann voscamp had on her blog "A Holy Experience" my thoughts followed one theme, BEAUTY. such incredible beauty that included thousands of cherry blossoms blooming across the world. hundreds of thousand of blooms across costa rica (.http://www.boredpanda.com/surreal-animal-portraits-katerina-plotnikova)  a little girl hunched over a chair napping. wild animals and tame people hugging each other. and my own backyard!! wisteria hanging low and abundant. the fragrance wild. so why do girls go to such length to show they are "beautiful" or guys to show they are "buff". all of this beauty came from within but also was seen by ones that had a tender heart. so the question is "what hardened your heart" so that beauty isn't seen in the everyday. how did you lose that innocence that now drives you to artificially fill your day with nonsense  _________. you fill in the blank.

as i read a post by Compassion International this morning, it referred to a prior post by someone as to children across the world and their prize toy? Compassion without a doubt has given their children a prize supported by contributors with love. a love that came from Jesus.  a truth that reads "THAT JESUS LOVES ME THIS I KNOW FOR THE BIBLE TELLS ME SO". our children , compassion children, know this, because we support them in love, in deed, in finance and in prayer. 

 so i ask you what did you put in the blank ____________.

 God is good and good all the time.

 Oh God keep my heart child like and my faith child like so that i believe just because You said it!
