Name two of your most used descriptive words when defining something you are passionate about.
I will wait while you ponder as my discussion subject is focused on those two words.
Ok...time is up. What two words did you choose?
After reading and re-reading my few weeks' writings as an official blogger, I noticed "BEAUTY" and "LOVE" used again and again.
Daily as we grow, mature and make a way in this world for ourselves, we are making little impressions in our soul from our moment-to-moment activities with man and nature. Our eyes take the image and stores it in our hearts, our souls. The image can be retrieved from our memory where we see the magnitude of words put into action. However, unlike a computer attached to a printer producing a print, our memories reproduce the image with words.
These two words tell a lot about who we are, where we have been, where we choose to go, what we want to see in others and what others see in us.
My image below is a simple photo taken in Daytona, but it represents for me all of the things in my years of living. It is BEAUTY of a bloom that began as a bulb in the ground. It is the LOVE that nurtured the plant to grow big, strong and fruitful. I brought a bulb from the ground in Florida, but because the soil and climate in Indiana is not suitable for this plant, I must keep it indoors in the winter and outdoors in the summer. Hence it is not truly rooted in firm foundation. It grows in a pot.
The key here is two-fold. Choose your words to represent you as HE has already chosen you, just plant yourself in soil that will produce a soul that speaks with HIS IIMAGE of light.
Therefore as you have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in your faith, just as you were instructed, and overflowing with gratitude.
Colossians 2:6-7
