The Most Beautiful Things

Babies on backs~ African smiles~

Vibrant sunsets~ Sandy beaches

The color of women's dresses~

Kids being kids~

Laughter~

A quiet 'thank you'~

Prayers of faith~

Miracles...big and small~

Liberian handshakes~Flip flops~

Worship with drums~ Dancing in church~

Fish jumping~ Cool misty mornings~Voices singing~

Bodies healed~
Hope despite circumstances~

Spirits revived~

"Praise the Lord, O my soul;

all my inmost being, praise His Holy Name.

Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits--

who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that yo ur youth is renewed like the eagle's. The Lord works righteousness and justice for all the oppressed...The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love...."

Psalm 104
