Garden Weeds, Simple Beauty ❤️
Joy is found in simple things! ✨
Scripture For Today: "Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them."
You step outside and notice how the morning sun hits the flowers.
A little bird lands near you and tilts its head like it's saying hello.
You take a breath and smell the earth after last night's rain.
Maybe you realize you've been rushing past these small wonders every day.
You think about how much beauty surrounds you that costs nothing at all.
God speaks through the simple things you almost missed.
Saint Francis loved every tiny creature and called them his brothers and sisters.
He found more joy in a sparrow's song than in all the riches he gave away.
The best gifts from God don't come wrapped in boxes.
Joy is waiting in the ordinary moments around you.
Today's Prayer: For Eyes That See
Jesus, slow me down to see Your face,
In every simple, holy place.
The birds that sing, the flowers that grow,
Remind me of the love You show.
Help me notice what I miss,
When I'm rushing through the day like this.
Let nature teach my tired soul,
That You're the One who makes me whole.
Thank You for the gift of seeing,
All the wonder in my being.
Amen.
Step outside for just one minute.
Find something beautiful in nature.
Thank God for making it just for you.
May Saint Francis's simple joy remind you today—
God's greatest gifts are free and everywhere.
Slow down and let wonder find you.
Holding you in prayer,
