Beauty is a wordless sermon on the mystery of the Divine Presence in our world. The appearance of beauty and our ability to receive it is a revelation of God in our lives. Beauty is one of the faces of God. It is God’s memory of all that is holy and good, faithful and true. It often appears upon the scene when hope seems gone. It has the power to heal, restore, comfort, and delight that part of you that is overcome with grief. Beauty is God’s way of reminding you of your own beauty. It is God remembering you.
