Cloudy Day
I love cloudy days,
I'm in love with clouds;
I love that every time I look up, I get to see a painting of the greatest artist;
A painting that is ever-changing;
It's a beautiful mess;
Ever-changing;
I love clouds.
I love clouds because it reminds me a bit of me;
It reminds me of my mind;
It reminds me of my messy days;
More and more I realize how the clouds and I are alike;
More and more I realize what a beautiful mess I am;
A painting;
They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder;
Well every time I look up,
I behold the beauty of the clouds;
And I can not help but think that in that same way,
God looks at me;
A beautiful mess;
His beautiful creation;
I am a painting, a beautiful mess,
Created by the creator of the skies.
The astounding thing about this is, He cleaned me up when I met Him;
He wiped my old stains off;
He made me a clean canvas;
And then He started painting;
He started painting, a beautiful painting;
He painted me;
And He is still painting me;
He preserves my life, like a treasured painting;
And when I don't realize it, He reminds me,
That He beholds the beauty!
He beholds me!
There's purpose in my mess;
There's purpose in this.
