how do you qualify Life is beautiful?

two and a half days with good friends in beautiful country 

blurry times and much beauty

wait

From earlier this spring

From of old no one has heard
    or perceived by the ear,
no eye has seen a God besides you,
    who acts for those who wait for him.

                                - Isaiah 64:4

for with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light. - psalm 36.9

After a sudden storm, we found the ultimate puddle. Light, water, camaraderie.... Every beautiful thing on earth is a reflection of its full version in heaven.

a far-off country

I'm seeking a homeland alongside companions like these girls. My friends - the compatriots God has given. He gives of himself through people like this, as they seek to live through him. I have seen that time & time & time again. It is faithfulness and it is beautiful.

Times like these photos are "news from a country we have never yet visited." That country is home and it is where we are going, it is where our King is coming from to meet us.

My friends brought me flowers in the midst of winter's bleakness - thank you.

peaceful discovery

Outings with my old friend are some of my favorites.
