Beautiful Things - From More Peace
Beautiful Things
Around you things can be hard.
Thoughts are anxious.
Fear abounds.
But inside you there can be peace.
Hold beautiful things in your heart.
A loved one’s smile.
The waves on the shore.
A seat by the fire.
Fall leaves on mountains.
Your own bedroom chair.
A Christmas memory.
A favorite cup.
Daffodils.
Think of these things often.
Hold these things in your heart.
Feel peace.
Philippians 4:8
Finally, brothers and sisters,
whatever is true,
whatever is noble,
whatever is right,
whatever is pure,
whatever is lovely,
whatever is admirable -
if anything is excellent or praiseworthy
-think about such things.
Blaise Pascal
In difficult times carry
something beautiful in your heart.
