We all imagine what beauty is. We all think what beauty is. We all wish we knew what true beauty is.
Are you beautiful in personal appearance? Is your home beautiful? Is your car beautiful? Do you have a beautiful mind?
Or, do you just want to wake up in the morning feeling beautiful about yourself and have this feeling continue throughout the day?
Beautiful may be a plant, a piece of glass, a painting, a building, a book, a movie, a drive shaft, a lawn, the sky, the stars, a song, a poem, a piece of furniture, a newborn baby – what drives you in your quest to attain this elusive quality in your soul?
Isaiah 52:7….How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messengers who announce peace, who bring good news…………..
Isn’t beauty peace in your life?
Too often in our hectic world we overlook the simple things of life and only look for the majestic wonders of nature and man made architecture; yet, we fail to notice the hummingbird, that should not be able to fly, going from plant to plant fulfilling its GOD given purpose. Is not the human being just as important?
In business, why do we overlook our fellow brother and sister in the pursuit of our own goals? Do they not want beauty in their lives? Do they not long for peace, if not for just a moment? As we advance further and further up the ladder to success, we encounter individuals that deserve a servant, someone to help them on their journey, just as we have been helped. Isn’t your light bright enough for more than just you?
Why not?
To give up self in the service of another is beauty that is indescribable. Do you anticipate need? Do you see a sadness in someone? Are you aware of your blessings? Are you thankful?
First Peter 3:13 says it all ……”Now who will harm you if you are eager to do what is good? But even if you do suffer for doing what is right, you are blessed.
Wouldn’t you like to bless someone and be his servant so that he too may experience the peace that can come from giving. In business, giving of yourself in service to others, no matter what area, is the true beauty that you seek. Do not let anyone tell you that in today’s crazy world, you cannot have personal and business happiness. It is there for you.
Now, that is a discussion for another day.
Blessings
