Letter 4375
The tress clap, the hills rain down their applause. This day is one of beauty.
Can I appreciate it? Joy flits in and out of view as clouds of mood settle like mist. The sun hangs in the noon sky, yet my vision goes dim.
❖
Let me breathe in this beauty, Lord. Your beauty, given to me with grace.
Let me accept the joy you hold out in your hand.
Consider:
Can I receive joy today?
