EXQUISITE
Job 38:12
O God, You are Exquisite - exquisite in beauty, exquisite in strength. I see Your glory in the faithful rising of the sun which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, it rejoices as a strong man to run his course. I see Your splendor in the brilliant colors of the rainbow, a timeless wonder of Your radiant presence. I see Your power when You open the storehouses of the snow, causing a peaceful purity to blanket the earth. O how exquisite is Your handiwork, O God! I hear the matchless melody of the morning birds; I hear the trees of the field clapping their hands; I see the breaking of the mighty ocean waves and I feel the whisper of the calming wind. All Your creation gives thanks and praise to Your holy name! And then, I meditate on Your most exquisite work of art - the profound paradox: Jesus, King of Kings, wrapped in swaddling clothes lying in a manger. Beauty and strength, humility and grace ... angels singing, kings bowing, shepherds rejoicing, and my heart proclaiming, "Exquisite."

About this Plan
A treasure principal of faith lies within this 30 day devotional, "The Heartbeat of God." Each day begins with a declaration of praise using these words, "O God, You are...". Then, an unfolding of His character and attributes begins (for example: "O God, You are Good"). These scripture-filled devotional prayers guide the reader into a practice of lifting up God's Name, which results in a deeper understanding of His intentional "heartbeat" of love for His people.
