God is beauty.  Stepping into who we are at our core calls on us to own all of the magnificence from which we were created.  We each have an exquisite natural beauty that exudes from our hearts and connects with the hearts of others.  We know we are in this lovely way of being when we are able to see the inherent beauty in others.  It is like our hearts have our eyes and they override the ones in our heads.  This exquisite beauty is more than a physical manifestation.  It is the kind experienced when we are in a place of peace and acceptance of ourselves and the world around us.  There are times when I feel this loveliness so definitively and it is beyond words.  The choice is always there whether to see through the eyes of my heart while seeing through the eyes in my head or just the limited view from the eyes in my head. It seems to be dependent upon the strength of my connection to God in the moment.  I do notice that after all these years of daily meditation dates with God my heart hurts when I am not able to use the eyes within it to see the loveliness I know is there.  It is in those times that God takes my hand and places it on my own heart and encourages me to breathe.

My prayer for us is the willingness to reach for the hand of God when the loveliness of existence seems to have escaped our vision.

If God has placed the eyes of love within our hearts ready to be chosen, how can God assist you in accessing those eyes and witnessing the loveliness in yourself and others today?  Share in the comments.
