Beauty a Sacrament. January 19.

Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything beautiful. Beauty is God's handwriting -- a way-side sacrament; welcome it in every fair face, every fair sky, every fair flower, and thank Him for it, who is the Fountain of all loveliness, and drink it in simply and earnestly with all your eyes; it is a charmed draught, a cup of blessing.
