Say no to neophobes. They will only bring you gift wrapped pain.
“I AM”
Therefore I am…
Forgiven
Favoured
Strong
Safe
Secure
Saved.
I thought I wasn’t beautiful
Who am I to mock God?
Forgetting He cradled my spirit into being
How dare I belittle Him and
Disregard His power, insulting Him
I called God a liar without saying a word
I thought I wasn’t beautiful.
16 So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. 17 For the sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are in conflict with each other, so that you do not do what you want. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under law. 19 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. 25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. —Galatians 5:16-25

"Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Savior"

"Two people who were once very close can
without blame
or grand betrayal
become strangers.
Perhaps this is the saddest thing in the world."

Dove (USA) Real Beauty Sketches Ad. I am not one to give credit to advertisers (that is the conspiracy theorists in me haha). But I was in tears, still crying even now. As women we are so hard on ourselves, especially when it comes to our looks. Our idea of beauty is too tied up in other people’s opinions and thoughts of who we are and how we should look.
Let me not go into a rant.
“You are more beautiful than you think”.
Psalm 139:14 “I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;[b]
Marvelous are Your works,
And that my soul knows very well.”
