Sometimes I feel ugly.
Sometimes I feel unworthy.
Sometimes I feel ineffective.
Sometimes I feel unimpactful.
Some days are worse than others.
We are our biggest critics, and the minimal things in our lives become our largest obstacles. Our minds can make us second, third, & fourth guess who we are & whose we are.
Sometimes, when you're working so hard to serve others & help them recognize & grow into who God has called them to be, you forget that you need the SAME service. That is my story.
We all need that reminder that God sees us as beautiful. Our lives may not be what we want them to be or we may not be as far as we think we should be, but God sees something beautiful in us; something worth investing His only Son in for! That's amazing!
Our beauty isn't measured solely on our physical appearance, but God's love makes us worthwhile. His Spirit that breathes through us, His compassion, and His constant reminders that He's with us. He sees your value even when you can't see.
Enjoy the song that this post was based upon, called "Beautiful Things". It is originally written & performed by Michael Gungor, but I LOVE Nicole Binion's version.
In HIM,
