Today as I was photographing new designs, I couldn't help but notice how beautiful these dried roses were.

It struck me that many times we feel dried up spiritually. We may feel like we're at the end. We feel spiritually ugly- useless.

But God, in the midst of those feelings, is constant. In the midst of the shriveled up parts of our hearts, is still doing His work. He is still doing what He is the Master at--

taking the parts that have died and bringing beauty. Redefining beautiful.

Lord, give us a glimpse of the beauty You are creating out of our shriveled places as we put them in your Master hands.
