Be Beautiful
I found this tree minding its own business during my walk today. It's high enough up the hill that nobody has probably ever sat under its limbs - except if you're a cow. I walk by this tree almost every work day. I've never really noticed it before, but today I was reeling from what I almost let out of my fingers in typing my earlier blog. I starred at the tree for a little while to take in its natural beauty and (dare I say) be a part of its day.
This isn't some tree-hugger rhetoric. This isn't some hippie rant. This was a man, at peace with God, enjoying the day that he was given. This was a tree, oblivious about what a blog is and only concerned about being beautiful for God.
Did I happen to mention that I slept 7 hours one night last week? It felt wonderful. I pray for more restful nights.
