I adore the Scriptural encouragement above. "Consider the lilies." Isn't it mind boggling that God would give flowers that much beauty, attention, nurturing, and detail?! How wonderfully He created the flowers! And to think...if He put that much creativity and life into the flowers...how much more does he love us!? The crown jewel of His creation. The last thing he made. Us. Man and woman.
Yes, we [as humans] have sin as a result of The Fall (Genesis 3). But He can make us new! He makes beautiful things out of us...no matter how lost we feel or how far away form Him we've run.
I'm leaving you with a song. Because I love music. A lot. I hadn't heard this song until a few years ago when it was on the set list for worship at my church in Charlotte a few years ago. I had the honor of helping lead it (well, the girl part, at least ;)).
I listened to the song again last night, thought of my post yesterday, and smiled. What grace. Little did I know how new and whole, holy and complete He was making me as I sang those words.
"You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust.
You amke beautiful things
You make beauitful things out of us
....
You make me new
You are making me new."
