Oh, how our violent world today needs all the beauty we can create!
What beauty do you bring to your world? A quilt you’re working on? A specially set table for dinner? A single rose you’re taking to someone in a nursing home? A letter to your congressperson about care of the earth? Music?
What beauty would you like to add to God’s world? Do it.
