**See the Beauty
**
Look at other people; see their inner beauty
Shining out brightly as they love abundantly.
In the expressions they share, in the words they say.
And in the actions they do that brighten each day.
Society wants to look at the outer shells
Rather than the heart and the soul where love indwells,
To make beauty something superficial only,
And not God’s perfect love flowing for all to see.
God’s love is an endless fountain we tap into
Drawing from His infinite love when we love true.
We serve as His instruments for loving others
When we love all people as sisters and brothers.
People’s expressions and glances can share their love
Making others feel wanted and loved from above.
A joy-filled smile can make days special for many
Uplifting their spirits and touching hearts deeply.
People’s words express love, indifference or hate.
Words affect others more than we appreciate.
Verbal gentleness and kindness warms others deep;
Verbal cruelty can cause others inside to weep.
People’s actions demonstrate to others their love
Particularly when life comes to push and shove
For loving is very easy when hardships rare
And when life is hard your actions show if you care.
Look for beauty in everyone you meet today.
Look for their loving in each and every way.
See God working through every person you see,
And you will see shining out their inner beauty.
