'A Beautiful Life!
A Beautiful Life!
"She has done what she could!" Mark 14:8
"Moreover it is required in stewards, that one be found faithful." 1 Corinthians 4:2
A life does not need to be great, to be beautiful. There may be as much beauty . . .
in a tiny flower — as in a majestic tree;
in a little gem — as in a great mountain;
in the smallest creature — as in a massive one.
A life may be very lovely in God's eyes — and yet be insignificant in the world's eyes. A beautiful life fulfills its mission in this world, and is what God made it to be, doing what God created it to do.
Those with only common gifts, are in danger of thinking that they cannot live a beautiful life, and cannot be a blessing in this world.
But the most obscure life which fills its place well, is far lovelier in God's sight, than the grandest and most splendidly gifted life which fails in its divine mission.
"Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31
"Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things — I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your Lord!" Matthew 25:23
