I get to experience the most beautiful sunset I have ever watched in my entire life.
As the sun dips in the fine line where the blue sky meets the shimmering sea,
As I stand there in awe with the feeling of the sand beneath my feet,
As I watch everything unfold right before my very eyes with the calming sound of the waves,
I get to have a glimpse of one of the most gorgeous things that God is doing,
From the vivid white light, to the finest shades of yellow, to the brightest shade of orange,
As the sky mirrors the colors that the golden sun is pouring out,
I smiled.
Because, I get to see a once-in-a-lifetime event,
And then it hit me,
It isn’t a once-in-a-lifetime event, because it happens every single day.
Sunset happens every day.
God made me realize one great lesson:
Just because you don’t see it, doesn’t mean that something beautiful isn’t happening.
So, to you, my dear,
You may not be able to see it today, but as sure as I can be, God is doing something.
Something beautiful, something extraordinary.
Every. Single. Day.
God’s extension of His grace occurs on a daily basis.
You just have to look closely.
You just have to look beyond.
Beyond the pain.
And close to God.
Close to the Creator who made your sun set, and the same Creator who will make your sun rise.
Be confident in Him.
Have faith.
Because at the end of each day, a beautiful sunset happens.
Psalm 113:3
“From the rising of the sun to its setting, the Name of the Lord is to be praised.”
