Who Ever Said Anything Bad About Previews?

A few days ago I was riding in the car on the way to church, when I decided to take some pictures with my camera. It had just rained but the gloominess was gone, and the sky was looking really pretty.

I started taking a few pictures, then a few more, until I ended up with about 25 pictures of things around me.

It made me think, and I’ve decided that people are addicted to beauty.

Seriously, we never want to stop looking at things that amaze us – things that make us feel like our world isn’t as average as we tend to think.

God knew that when He created us and the things around us.

By painting our sunsets, giving voices to birds, and awakening the blooming spring flowers, He was presenting us with what we crave – beauty.

Now of course that leads me to think some more.

In a world that is tainted by sin and ugliness, pollution and crime, we still find God’s perfection all around us.

What is it going to be like in Heaven, where nothing spoils what God intended life to be?

I don’t know about you, but I’m sure looking forward to the Real Thing, after this preview that we get on Earth.

Here are a couple of the pictures I took -
