I love this Lisa! First of all, every time I read or hear about a transformed life through Christ I am awed. He is the God of the impossible. Only Jesus …

I love how you shared the story of Jody. And I have to say that after reading the account of the little one who died, I had to go back and view that drawing again. Wow; what a difference as it adds so much more meaning.

Thank you for sharing your view here on beauty; not as the world views it but more importantly how God views it.

Blessings and love,
Debbie

This is beautiful, Lisa, in the simplicity and the power of the story shared. It has touched my heart. When we learn the story, we uncover the beauty…so NEVER judge a book by its cover. Thanks, Lisa.

Wonderful perspective — how hidden beauty is revealed when we are patient enough to look for it. Thank you for sharing this. I have actually experienced this in my own life — finding more beauty in my own heart than I had believed was there when I was less whole. God has confirmed beauty in places I hid. He sees beauty in us when we do not — as Michelangelo saw David in the Marble before he even started carving. You inspire, Lisa, with your gift of storytelling for His glory.

Wow! I love this. So often we judge from the outside without knowing a person’s story… Thank you for sharing! ♥

First, I’m sorry. When there’s a lot of comments in a post (coming over from the linkup at Bonnie’s) I figure mine’s not needed; I don’t need to take the time to add to this one. But that’s utilitarian and perhaps proud. So, I’ll try to change that. I often read and don’t comment on your blog, Lisa! Sorry for lurking here.
Second, thanks for the TED link. I never seem to get around to watching TED talks. Maybe I should.
Third, I love your story. Love how beauty grows especially from within, outward. I’m sorry for your loss of Jody, glad for your sweet in the bittersweet of loss. Thank you for sharing this meditation on true beauty. Sorry for my awkwardness in comment-land.

Oh this is beautiful, Lisa. Powerful. Words have me in tears repenting of my complaining today about the bitter cold…..seeing the suna nd cold and snow a bit differently after your post. Attitude change 😉
Thanks Lisa………..

Hi Lisa!
This really made me stop and think. How many people do we look past daily that truly have beautiful hearts, beautiful spirits. If we would just take the time to get to know them I think we would be surprised at what they can share with us. 🙂

“When we learn the story, we uncover the beautiful.” I thought the picture was beautiful when I first saw it. I love the “flying free” butterfly. 🙂 But hearing the story of the artist adds such a brightness to it and such a profound meaning. She is now totally free in Jesus. Thanks so much for sharing this, Lisa!
