Beauty

For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. Romans 1:20

We see God’s creation everyday, he made it for us so that we are without excuse for knowing we have a God and he LOVES us :] How awesome is that?

Speaking of God’s beautiful creation… Jim and I went to Phipps Conservatory in Schenley Park. Basically is is a big greenhouse with tons of beautiful flowers!

Phipps was AWESOME and we got in for half price because I had a groupon :] YAYAY.

After we visited Phipps, Jim and I headed to Max Mex in Shady Side for lunch (I got a quesedilla + soup and he got a spicy burrito!) and because Jim pretty much built all of the steel work for the restaurant.

Guess where else we went!

Chicka chicka yeaaaaaaaa WHOLE FOODS!

What was the most beautiful thing you saw this weekend?

Simple

The law of the LORD is perfect, 
   refreshing the soul. 
The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy, 
   making wise the simple.

Psalm 19:7

Simplicity. What does it mean?

(^That is how I look in math… like uhhh????)

*The quality or condition of being easy to understand or do

*The quality or condition of being plain or natural

I love simple things.

Sometimes in life simplicity is the best thing.

Reading a simple scripture and reflecting on it and fully understanding it and using it in my life is a simple act I love. Drinking a cup of plain coffee is so simple and never fails to make me happy. Learning in class and truly understanding the concept can be rewarding. Simply hanging out with friends and family is so refreshing.

Sometimes I find myself sitting at my kitchen table, eating lunch, checking my email, and reading texts on my phone.

That is not simple. I should do each thing separately and enjoy the simple and delicious meal I am blessed to eat. Then read the email and answer the text messages.

I am guilty of trying to do everything at once, yet never giving anything my full attention.

I want to change that and simplify my life more and more 🙂

What simple thing did you enjoy today?

P.S. Happy Earth Day :]
