Beauty or The Ability to See Colors

one of the books that i have been reading is The Pleasures of God by John Piper. it's one of those books that you read little bits of at a time and just meditate on it for awhile. yesterday, i read this:

"...with God the honeymoon never ends. He is infinite in power and wisdom and creativity and love. And so he has no trouble sustaining the honeymoon level of intensity; he can foresee all the future quirks of our personality and has decided he will keep what's good for us and change what isn't; he will always be as handsome as he ever was, and will see to it that we get more and more beautiful forever; and he is infinitely creative to think of new things to do together so that there will be no boredom for the next trillion ages of milleniums."

the thought that came to mind is similar to what i was already thinking in this post. seeing God's creativity in His creation helps me to catch a tiny glimpse of His glory. awestruck. colors are amazing beyond words. try to describe color to someone who cannot see... think about what words you would use.

last night's sunset was amazing - offset by the rising moon in it's near full brilliance. our Creator is marvelous beyond words!
