Beauty Beyond the Grime

I’m looking at the sun take its place in the sky and its rays shining on the city and the waters surrounding it through a dirty ferry window. I could have gotten caught up on the fact that the window is grimy or I could choose to focus on what lies beyond the glass.

Life is like that – you can be thwarted by the appearance of a circumstance or you could use it as a lens to see something absolutely beautiful that lies beyond it.

I pray you look through the griminess of life to find the beauty that is present on the other side.
