details.

I once heard a speaker say, "Don't ever forget that God knows you and He knows what you like."

It has stuck with me...He knows what I like. He knows what I love. He knows what makes my heart skip a beat.

Rain pouring on a tin roof.

Bright colors.

The click of a camera.

The contrast of black and white photographs.

Inspiring poetry.

The heat of a fresh cup of coffee.

Sun shining in a window.

That first sip of water when you wake up in the morning.

Running.

Soap suds.

Hand written letters.

The scratch of a pen as I write.

A sky decorated with clouds.

The details of life. These are the things that I cannot live without. I thrive in the small, minuscule, seemingly ordinary details because I am convinced that it is the details where I will see Christ more clearly.

He keeps giving, I keep seeing. He keeps loving, I keep being loved. And falling in love, all over again, every day, with every detail I receive as grace.

Because that's all it is - His grace. His grace is written on and woven into the details.

So how can I help but love them?
