“If we lose our desire for beauty, it will only serve to diminish our desire for our beautiful God. The balance, I suppose, is learning to long for the beauty that matches his character and reflects his beauty. And then, once we find it, we give praise to the one who gives beauty to all that is beautiful.”
Julian Freeman, Let's Not Knock Beauty
Splendor and majesty are before him;
strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
Psalm 96.6
