Making Things Beautiful

Making things beautiful

You will often hear me say that I love to make things beautiful. And that is the truth. I really do! Not that I want to repeat myself often, but the day I realized this was a day to remember.

Let me take you there…

I was living in Northern Minnesota, and if you have never been there in the FALL…GO! (And any season really…it is just beautiful!)  So, one afternoon I was driving along the shore of Lake Superior, it was a crisp fall morning and I began to just thank the Lord for making fall so beautiful. A glance in any direction was a kaleidoscope of red, orange, yellows….and then it hit me. Since, we are created in the image of God, everything we are, love about life, enjoy doing  is a part of Him. And my longing to make things beautiful was something we shared. It is a trait that I love about myself that I just now (unfortunately) noticed that Christ and I have in common. How cool is that? I have something in common with the Creator of the Universe.

You know those light bulb moments, and you just think…Duh!

Yea, that was me. Driving in utter amazement.

 And today, I had the privilege to design again. And every step of the way, I felt a little nudge in my spirit. I know Christ was enjoying it just as much as I.

Think of the things He designs for you and I every day. Sunsets, refreshing rain, green fields, crashing oceans….Psalms 118:24 “This is the day that the Lord has made, REJOICE and be glad in it!”

Every single day is a designed creation just for you. Soak that in...

Then Rejoice!

In the swing of things

It is just a beautiful day today! You know when you wake up in the morning and you just feel great?

Today was one of those days and finding time to write is something I try to make a priority. But, I have been so busy these past few weeks and my lack of writing has been a bit bothersome. So, today it was at the top of my list, after coffee of course! ;)


And the only thing that comes to mind, when I place pen to paper (or in all actuality, finger to key board) is just how grateful I am to be where I am.

When looking back on the last few months of my life, I would have never been able to even vision this. But, just as 1 Corinthians 2:9 says, "...no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him!"

This scripture is one I have held onto for many many years. And I crave to know my Savior and the things He has for me more than anything else in life because I know He can do a much better job than I.

And my life is no different than any of yours. A lot of you can look back and say the same exact thing. It is a miracle that I am here!

Isn't that just beautiful?

So, today I am reminded just how blessed I am to have a savior that loves me enough to completely transform my life, and simply make it beautiful.

Here are a few pictures of my latest ventures. :)

Have a beautiful day!

Mostly, Becky

The Start

Hey ya’ll! I am so excited you found me! I am just so excited to share today with you. I want to start out and just say how incredibly blessed I am.

Christ told me that after I resigned from my position at a resort as an event coordinator just a few short months ago, that I was to pursue me own venture. This honestly, was the last thing on my mind. I was just excited to be at a place of rest and relaxation, finally. And quite frankly, was enjoying the “I have nothing to do” agenda.  But, God has opened up doors of opportunity that I cannot pass up. He has given me the opportunity to pursue my dream, this company, full-time.

How exciting is that?! Every day the Lord brings something, someone, or takes me somewhere that I could not have dreamed of. And just a few short months ago, I would have never dreamt I would be where I am today.

So, as I step out in faith to obey the Lord in this, I pray you are touched by my stories, ventures, experiences, and work. God has given me such an amazing blessing, to do what I love every day. I could not be more grateful!  And remember….never underestimate My Jesus!
