Beauty is your most immediate experience of the eternal. Think of what it’s like to behold a gorgeous sunset or the ocean at dawn. You yearn to linger. Sometimes the beauty is so deep it pierces you with longing for life as it was meant to be. … Beauty draws you to God. —John Eldredge

Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and joy are in his dwelling place.
(1 Chronicles 17:27, NIV)

Found when I wasn’t looking, heard
When I wasn’t listening. Found beauty.
Art is making visible what is invisible in the life of faith. —Eugene Peterson

One thing I ask from the Lord, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple. (Psalm 27:4, NIV)
