Joyful Ruins

Discovering joy in the hard places

Goodness, Love, and Mercy

How could I ever fully fathom Your love?

It would take all my days and then some

To explore every corner

To feel every drop of Your

Goodness

Mercy

Pursuit

It is endless

Yet it is always complete

Full

So why do I look for it elsewhere?

Why do I seek love in others?

In their hands

In their eyes

In their words

Let me get lost

In Your quiet whispers to me

In Your hand holding mine

In Your eyes looking at me

Hanging from the cross

And victoriously rising to give me life

Let me turn to You

Adventure with You

And never grow tired of learning

Of growing

Of spendimy my life with You

Giving You my all

I see the world through stories and insights. I have always been a sensitive soul, especially towards nature, people, art, and faith. I spend a lot of time reflecting and finding treasures wherever I can. The two values I live by are beauty and celebration. I hope my blog communicates those two things, seeing beauty where beauty is not often seen and celebrating every aspect of life, the hard and the easy.
