Waiting for the Beautiful

There are days in your journey when it is very hard to find the beauty in the broken, the message in the mess. My own words do not suffice so I go to His . . .


For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:
a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
a time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
a time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
a time to seek, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away; 
a time to tear, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence and a time to speak; 
a time to love, and a time to hate;
a time for war, and a time for peace.

. . . He makes everything beautiful in its time.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8,11

  6. It sounds like you are going through something right now and while I don't know what it is I pray that you will find peace and comfort. - Your pieces are both beautiful and you know that God is in control, I can tell through your Art.
