True Beauty

Mr. Husband and I were with his
family for the week of Western Christmas.

This was our dresser, with a large mirror.
I woke one day and was looking at our icons
and the thought came that this
is where real beauty is.
*
As if the dresser was the women's dressing table
where hair would be brushed, make up dabbed on.
*
Instead it is where prayer was done,
Icons were laid out with love.

Where Holy Water stood.
 
Where prayer books laid.
*
This is truly where beauty comes...

In a nutshell.

I do love your Holy water bottles...where did you get them from?
