THE Challenge of 2011: Beauty in the Disaster.

I love to admire-- but sometimes I fail to do so. God made this world beautiful, and sometimes we forget to stop and admire His handiwork through all our crazy schedules. So this year, I challenge you (and myself) to take a step back and wonder at a sunset, a storm, or a child's laughter... and just be. Let that moment consume you with its happiness. Know that the Lord holds this world in His hand, yet He loves you. Just stop and take a moment to be blissfully happy.

"The heavens are Yours, the earth is also Yours; The world and all it contains, You have founded them." Psalm 89:11









Find beauty in the disaster. Love when you feel like it's impossible. Pray when you don't feel like praying. Laugh when you don't feel like laughing-- at that one person who can make you laugh by looking at you. Live when you don't think you can go on.

"The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe." Proverbs 18:10
