Imperfect Beauty

When I look in my backyard right now, I see grass in desperate need of mowing.

My children, however, see wildflowers waiting to be picked.

Don’t we do that with ourselves, as well as our things? Too often, we focus in on the imperfections.

The thing is, beauty is always there, around us, and within us – we just need to choose to see it.

I want to encourage you to watch this video. It is so powerful. You may look into the mirror and see what you think are flaws, but so many others look at you and see the flowers.

“I will praise You [Lord], for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well.” Proverbs 139:14
