What if one of the gifts our hearts need most is beauty? In this gentle reflection, Stasi invites us to pause and receive the nourishment God offers through His creation, allowing its beauty to remind us of the beauty of our King. She also turns our gaze toward a deeper Hope: Jesus reigns over all things, and the day is coming when He will make all things new. As Captivated continues its July break, join us in taking a moment to soak in His beauty and goodness.
