Beauty
You may be feeling bored with what’s around you. But look again as St. Francis would. Francis was continually overwhelmed by the beauty of the world; and not just trees and flowers, but also the wounded, the broken, and the sad. He had a vivid sense of the sacramentality of all of creation. All things reflected their creator’s love and filled him with wonder and joy. Ask God to renew your vision.
