I don’t know what it is about the sky…but it always makes me feel so light. I just took this picture outside my window and I gotta say, there are very few things that make me feel the way I do when I look out at something like this. Maybe it’s because when I was younger, I really believed that the most beautiful spot I could find in the sky was where God was. The Bible is always talking about the Heavens and how God’s UP there and stuff so..hey, why not, right? haha…

This semester has thrown quite a bit of curve balls and nothing but the grace of God has pulled me through it. And it’s not always so easy to remember He’s there when you’re stuck in the muck of your worries and troubles, you know? But… when I look up and breathe a deep sigh… and see something as beautiful as that… I feel my troubles melt away. I hear God saying “look at what I have created, just for you”…. and not a single person or circumstance can take that away.

I guess I just want to send an encouragement out there…that the little things DO make a difference, and don’t slight the simplest of gifts from God; because everyday is a blessing, and everyday, regardless of what people say or do, or what grades we get or don’t, or whatever goes our way or doesn’t…God is still just as beautiful…. yesterday, today, and forever.
