sunset

Good morning…

“In a handful of relationships I have been insensitive,” I explain to my friend. “I have dropped the ball. I have trampled over feelings. I sense my flaws so significantly right now. But the light of the sun still rises on me, and God’s radiance breaks through anyway.”

“It’s like the clouds on our last night at the beach,” I recall. “They made the sunset shine with a different kind of beauty, casting muted shades and shadows. That’s what my imperfections do, they play differently with the sunlight. But the grace of God still rises and sets, unhindered by my flaws.”

The sun rises and the sun sets.

It hurries back,

panting and out of breath,

to its starting point,

where it rises again.

– Ecclesiastes 1:5 (EHV)

Each day and each night, I am grateful the loving light of our living Lord quietly creates beauty with me, just as I am.

…Sue…
