How Jesus Invites You to Beauty

I once saw a beach sunset
So beautiful that I couldn’t stand
To see it alone.

It was too beautiful to hog it for myself
So, I ran indoors to beckon my wife
But wonder-full Anne was busy unpacking
And cleaning and settling in.
She hesitated.

But the sun was dropping fast
And the sky was on fire with a thousand hues
So, I sprinted in again
And pleaded, “You MUST see this…”

The sweetheart submitted
And soon we held hands in the dunes
As the sand turned to gold and the sea glowed amber
And the sea oats danced
And the palm trees clapped
In celebration of God’s artistry.

I think Jesus invites you into discipleship today
Like I invited Anne into the sunset:
“Come and … see!” The Savior says.
He wants you to see what He sees.
I bless you to take Christ’s hand
And watch for wonder.
