beholding beauty; enlarging my life

“To behold beauty dignifies your life; it heals you and calls you out beyond the smallness of your own self limitations to experience new horizons. To experience beauty is to have your life enlarged.” – John O’Donahue, Beauty
Affirmative prayer: Today, I behold the beauty of this life, the near-at-hand and the sweeping visions of my eyes and heart. My soul is enlivened in this grace, and I move with reverence and a keen awareness that my life is made whole, dignified, and enlarged. I’m so grateful that this is the essence and beauty of what is before me this day. Amen.
