"A crown of beauty in the Lord's hand." That's what the Bible says we are. We are His delight and He takes pleasure in lavishing His love upon us. Knowing these things makes me want to know more fully His passion for me. I want to live in the daily reality- God is crazy about me, so much so that He hung the moon just for me.
That is what I feel when I look out upon the moon lit sky. Although I gaze up into the expanse, I don't feel like a small speck in the mix. In the quietness of the night I feel God so intimately acquanited with me that He woos me into His company to say, "I hung the moon for you!"
Today I sat on the floor with my guitar and glanced over to see the first email Mark ever sent to me framed and sitting on my shelf. The subject line says, Missing Beauty. Mark sent me that after I left a church that we both attended and he was reconnecting to see where I went.
Today, when I read those words again, Missing Beauty, I knew that I was sensing the Lord's heart too. His thoughts towards us are too numerous to imagine, continually leaning in towards His Beauties, the ones for which He hung the moon. We are the ones He created millions of incredible flowers to enjoy. We are the ones that He made a world to exist in, to know love, be loved, give love and mostly experience His outrageous love. Don't you just want to soak in that outlandish moon hanging love? I do!
