something wonderful happen this morning. i was standing in my bathroom getting ready to take on my day... not really having a plan in mind and i found myself struggling like most women do with the image in the mirror. after almost giving in and deciding to take a lazy morning it dawned on me. you are beautiful anyway. you can choose to ignore it but its there lying under your disbelief. you were created in the image of God. you reflect the heart of God. so why not embrace it? Its hard to love yourself every minute of every day. but it makes things a little easier when you remember that you have beauty in the eyes of your Creator and Jesus is the lover of your soul.
-i wish i could say i realized this on my own... but i had some help, ive been reading bits of Captivating by John and Stasi Eldredge. its a keeper.

so true!
so real- i hate it when i let the number on the scale determine my daily mood(i do this so so often)-
i wish every day i could realize the truth you have shared. i know it's true, but i so often ignore it.
thanks for the reminder!
