True Beauty

|
A successful beauty product company asked the people in a large city to send pictures along with brief letters about the most beautiful women they knew. Within a few weeks thousands of letters were delivered to the company.

Devotion: It's been almost a month since many of us resolved to do some things differently this year. So, how is it going? I only had a couple of resolutions this year. But the one closest to my heart and most deserving of my attention is the prayer I scribbled out on New Year's Day.

shannon-lewis.jpgHave you ever thought about beauty? What is it about the shimmering snowy peaks of a mountain range that makes us stand in awe? Why are we so moved by a beautiful sunset, or the cry of a newborn baby?How many of us have ever stood at the edge of the Grand Canyon and actually felt significant in comparison? If you're like me, you arrogantly marched to the canyon's edge, but then dropped to your knees to cling to the earth in response to its immensity. It is beauty of that magnitude that just inspires awe. 

Even beauty like this doesn't fulfill us. We often come away from a beautiful sunset wanting more. The excitement of seeing the Grand Canyon wears off in time - we look over vacation pictures unable to connect with more than a fraction of that initial impact. Our favorite new c.d. - the one we've waited on for weeks - eventually loses its edge, and we are waiting on another that we've heard is coming out next month. How fickle! If I seek fulfillment and joy in music, I will always be disappointed.
