Who is Defining Beauty for You?

  God's definition of beauty is vibrant, alive, brilliant and radiant. It draws people in. Nothing vibrant is stationary. God's beauty compels us to action, to give to others. Worldly beauty compels us to consume: Get attention! Get admiration! Get approval!
   Vibrant beauty is the abundant life we're promised, and it prompts us to seek what we can give: give attention, give affirmation, give admiration to others. That's the beauty that leaves its mark on people and the world. The thief wants to steal, and God wants to give. When you contemplate beauty, notice what your definition of beauty is compelling you to do, and you will know who is defining beauty for you at that moment.
