For you created my inmost being;
You knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
My frame was not hidden from You
When I was in the secret place,
When I was woven together in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed body;
All the days ordained for me were written in Your book
Before one of them came to be.
Psalm 139:13-16
You Are Beautiful
You are beautiful because God created you, loves you, and paid everything to have a relationship with you.
If anyone tells you something else, they aren’t telling the truth.
Share about someone who has always encouraged you and knows how beautiful you are.

I loved the face in the flower. It is so amazing to see how God created something that looks like an old man or some creature from The Lord of the Rings, in nature. Your post makes me want to look at everything to see if I can see something beautiful in it:)
Thanks for sharing. Everything God creates has beauty because He created it. Then humans make judgments about whether they think it is beautiful. It’s difficult to see beauty sometimes. But thanks for reminding me to keep looking, too!
Thank you for sharing your photo and God’s Word. I’ve had lots of encouragers, but probably my biggest is my wife.
I appreciate you reading and commenting. I’m grateful that God provides people to encourage us.
Joni, beautiful photo, beautiful friend! My precious sister was my biggest cheerleader the entirety of her life. When others didn’t see me for the beautiful child of God that I am, Sissy did. She affirmed me and my gifts every day if her life, as if I were her own. I’ve often called her my second mother. She truly was that and so much more.
Love you!

Thank you for sharing about your sister. You affirm and support others, so her example and “second Mom” certainly rubbed off. Prayers for you.
