Beauty
I read this verse in my quiet time this morning:
"Let the beauty of our God be upon us..."
What do you think this means? How can we apply this in our own lives?

Reminds me of the hymn:
"Let the beauty of Jesus be seen in me,
All His loving compassion and purity;
O Thou Spirit divine, All my nature refine
Till the beauty of Jesus be seen in me."
—Tom M. Jones
I think this verse means that the beauty of our God—all His attributes that shine in Him, that attract us and draw us to Him—should and can be in us too, so that others can see and instinctively are drawn to (or repelled by) the qualities of Godliness in us.
We can achieve this in our lives by constantly looking into God's Word, and by constantly looking to God so that we become more like Him.
I also like 2 Cor. 3:18: "And all of us, with faces uncovered, because we continue to reflect like mirrors the splendor of the Lord, are being transformed into likeness to Him, from one degree of splendor to another, since it comes from the Lord who is the Spirit."
Blessings to you as you continue on your quest to shine in His beauty!
That was beautiful, pansies. Thanks so much for the wise words!
