Beauty stirs the soul—it lifts, softens, and awakens wonder.

Catholicism has always cherished beauty: stained glass, sacred music, incense, gardens, and art.

But beauty also shows up in your kitchen, your local park, or a child’s drawing.

To notice beauty:

  • Pause often.

  • Say, “Thank You” aloud.

  • Ask, “What is this beauty trying to tell me about God?”

Beauty isn’t frivolous—it points us home.

“From the greatness and beauty of created things comes a corresponding perception of their Creator.” (Wisdom 13:5)
