On your feet now—applaud God! Bring a gift of laughter, sing yourselves into his presence. Know this: God is God, and God, God. He made us; we didn’t make him. We’re his people, his well-tended sheep. Enter with the password: “Thank you!” Make yourselves at home, talking praise. Thank him. Worship him. For God is sheer beauty, all-generous in love, loyal always and ever. (Psalm 100: 1-5 Message)
This past weekend, I was able to check another goal off of my Finish Year list.
My husband and I ran the Wicked 10K again. We love this race not only because we love seeing all the funny costumes the participants run in but also because of the running route. The run takes place in Virginia Beach, VA and a good portion of the run is right along the ocean’s shore.
There is nothing quite like running along, rounding a corner, and bumping right into God’s beauty.
Enter with the password: “Thank you!”
Those words left my heart a few times as I ran along and listened to the waves hit the beach.
Just beautiful, Lord, thank you!
We’re running right Into the Beautiful today. Grab the button and come link up. Make sure to stop by and say “hi” to one or two other participants as well!

His creation does the same to me. Blessings!
Thanks, Christina!
Reminds me of the Psalm that was made into a praise song in the 1980’s, “I will enter His courts with thanksgiving in my heart, I will enter his gates with praise….”
This is the foundation for a positive attitude in all of living in this world. Thanks for the reminder!
Gratitude is powerful. Thanks, EvieJo!
