On clear nights, I get to see a blanket of stars just by pushing my curtains to the side. Whenever I'm reading a book I can't put down, I can even see the sky magically changing from the deepest black to azure to a breathtaking blend of reds and violets then--finally--to the blue we all know.
There are days when I forget all that's lost and all that hasn't arrived, and simply feel grateful for the grace that fills my hands and the love that fills my heart.
The world tells me there are so many things I should gain, but looking back, my happiest moments have never been costly. I'm happiest when I see Him in the mountains and hear Him in the rain. When I feel Him in the wind and smell Him in the flowers. When I stand in awe of Him.
The world may tell me that I have nothing, but I know in my heart that because I have God, I have more than enough. I have everything.
