Weekly watercolor: Finding hope in beauty

This week we’re observing Watercolor Wednesday on Thursday, because hey, who knows what day it is anymore! I clearly don’t. 

I thought we could use some simple beauty for today’s image. Two flowers with their bright colors on a blue background, reminding us to take a few moments to breathe in as we remember that God loves us and the world so much that he made glorious flowers for us to enjoy.

The Spring flowers this year feel particularly stunning, I think because we might feel beauty-starved from our lockdown-homes or essential places of business. We hear the news; we feel the news; we yearn for beauty and grace.

Take a moment now to pause and ponder the wonder of the God of the universe creating delicate flowers for you to enjoy. May you know his peace, joy, and wonder today.
