God, You are... Beautiful.

Beautiful as defined by Dictionary.com: "having beauty; having qualities that give great pleasure or satisfaction to see, hear, think about, etc.; delighting the senses or mind; excellent of its kind."
And that's just it. God is every single one of those. He pleases me, I like to see, hear, and think about Him, and he is certainly excellent.
I really like art. Music, painting, sculptures, dancing... any sort of art is genuinely beautiful to me. I like to study it and figure out why it's so beautiful. I mean, besides being beautiful, there has to be some sort of concrete element that draws me to it. And that's what this whole "God, You Are" thing is about. I want to focus on what makes God so beautiful and draws me to His essence.

God, You are... Awesome.

I know, I know... "Our God is an awesome God; He reigns from heaven above..." I throw that word around waaay too much without stopping to ask myself, 'is it REALLY worthy of awe?' Awesome is defined by dictionary.com as "inspiring awe; showing or characterized by awe." I can say that a picture is awesome, or a song is awesome, and they could genuinely be awesome. However, I use it too much and I want to change that. Care to join me? Our GOD is awesome. He is worthy of our AWE and I want to spend everyday worshiping His awesomeness (:
Stay cool!

God, You Are...

I have realized that I no longer focus on who God is. Rather, I focus on who I am. I've been trying to figure out who I am, and even though I look to God to figure it out, I fail to realize who He really is. So, starting today, I will post an adjective everyday. I'll start with A and end at Z just to make it easier to remember. Stay tuned for more(:
