I leave for college in less than 2 weeks (!!!) and I figured that a blog would be a great way for the family and friends who care to keep up with my life while I'm away from home. I also like writing and fleshing things out, so there will probably be a lot of that on here too.
The other purpose is, hopefully, the same as my life: to declare the glory of God. I'll fill whoever stumbles upon this blog in on the events of my life, but ultimately I want to look at those events as the work of God's hand, of His grace. Fore example, I have seen His glory so beautifully displayed this morning through the sunrise. Take a look:
My desire to see this got me out of bed at 6:30 am, and I had some time to kill as the rest of my family soundly sleeps, so I figured now would be as good a time as ever to get this whole blog thing rolling.
Anyways, anytime I see creation screaming the love and glory of the Almighty God, the words "beauty unimagined" come to mind, hence the name of this blog. I can't fathom the Lord or the work of His hands. The truth that He "is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine" resounds within me (Ephesians 3:20).
I could never imagine the beauty of that sunrise on my own. And as I sat watching it rise, I was overwhelmed with the love that the Father lavishes on us. He could simply put the sun in the sky, but instead, every morning, He paints this beautiful picture that screams "I AM GLORIOUS" and "I love you." Bless the Lord oh my soul.
"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands." -Psalm 19:1
For the record ~ her entire family was not asleep... her dad was by her side to experience this scene as well......
