You are Beautiful!

Image
Last night, I went to a bible study with some friends. We were all asked to arrive with no makeup on. There was a group of about nine of us girls. After we opened our night up in prayer, we were asked to look in the mirror and to share what we saw. As girls, we all have insecurities, which often stems from our society. We are constantly bombarded with images that we are told are beautiful. We see what guys think is beautiful and we are constantly struggling to be that kind of beautiful, to be skinner, to have bigger boobs, to be tanner, to have smooth skin, to wear tight revealing clothing etc.. This effort to become beautiful can actually become dangerous. It can be dangerous financially, and physically, but most seriously, it can be emotionally detrimental. We are constantly worn down by thinking that we are not good enough. We are not beautiful enough to be loved. We are not perfect enough for anyone. We are not perfect enough to go before God, the Almighty King.  Last night,

Show Jesus

SMILE! :) Your smile's always shinning out And they know what it's all about It's not hard for them to figure out The way you show Jesus You know love is what they heard And you didn't even say a word Ain't it funny that's the way it works When you know Jesus Oh it's like flipping on a light switch when you're walking into this room It's so undeniable I gotta tell you that I like the way Any time anywhere any place It's written all over your face The way you love Jesus And it always speaks to me A little joy with a touch of peace It's so inspiring The way you show Jesus ~"Show Jesus" By Jamie Grace Last weekend, I had the privilege of seeing Jamie Grace in concert. We were front and center and it was an incredible concert. Josh Wilson also performed! At the concert, I got a t-shirt that is navy blue and says, "SHOW JESUS" in very large bright green letters. I wore my shirt today as I was out doing a few errands,
