My prayer is one of beauty-
I pray not of vain, conceited beauty, or of selfish gain, but I lift a prayer of beauty to the Lord.
I am continually reminded of how beautiful the Word of God is, how beautiful creation is, how beautiful the name of the Lord is on the lips of the righteous.
Every moment spent in creation- outdoor, indoor- it doesn't matter. The pure beauty and magnificence of what God has made gives me chills.
Lord Jesus-
I pray not for myself to acquire some great outward beauty, nor do I pray the traditional prayer of inward beauty for any of these girls. Lord, I pray that we may be a reflection of YOUR beauty, because there is nothing else that is truly beautiful in comparison. As you are clothed with splendor, and as creation sings glorious praise, may we be a reflection of the beautiful essence of your presence. Like a sweet aroma, may our lives give total and complete credit to YOUR majesty, worthiness, and honor. Like light in a dark room, may we emanate a pure beauty that comes only from the Holy Spirit.
~Amen
"Who can proclaim the mighty acts of the LORD
or fully declare his praise?" Ps. 106:2
