5 Ways To Find Beauty in Your Day

Posted on July 15, 2015

A beautiful day just doesn’t happen, it is intentionally driven by our perspective.

“This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.”  (Psalm 118:24)

It has been said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. What is beautiful to one may not be considered beautiful to another. We tend to qualify beauty by that which gives pleasure to the eye, ear or mind that appeals to our own ideals and inspirational delights. God take on beauty is eternally driven and designed to inspire us each day of our journey as we grow in our relationship towards knowing Him.

We must learn to receive each new day as a gift from God.

“So teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom.” (Psalm 90:12)

Finding beauty in our day also begins with looking up to the One who formed us, “…to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord.” (Psalm 27:4).

We must learn to see life through God’s beauty.

Finding beauty in our day accepts that although “man is born to trouble” (Job 5:7) we have a Savior in Jesus Christ who has overcome the world.

“I have said these things to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)

We must learn to guard our hearts with peace.

Finding beauty in our day embraces a purpose filled life and the pursuit of fulfilling our unique mission on this earth. This involves submitting ourselves to God’s best route of transforming us into the image of His Son. Outward and inward beauty can seek no other course but the path God has chosen.

“Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” (Psalm 119:105)

We must learn to submit to God’s word, and trust His word as our guide.

Finally, we find beauty in our day by waiting gracefully for God’s timing to establish us when we have satisfied His heart in the transformation process. He promises to make everything beautiful in His time. (Ecclesiastes 3:11)

“Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices!” (Psalm 37:7)

We must learn that God will accomplish all His desire towards us.

“He fulfills the desire of those who fear Him; He also hears their cry and saves them.” (Psalm 145:19)

May you find God’s beauty today!
