True Beauty

 "Don’t be concerned about the outward beauty of fancy hairstyles, expensive jewelry, or beautiful clothes. You should clothe yourselves instead with the beauty that comes from within, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is so precious to God." -1 Peter 3:3

I love this verse so much. It is such a great reminder of what true beauty looks like. It is so easy to get caught up in society's views of beauty, instead of wrapping ourselves in the Truth. It's so awesome, the Creator of the universe made me. He thought of me. And He loves me. And He sees me as beautiful. Society's opinion will change, but the Lord's remains the same. I wish it was easier to grasp this truth and hold onto it. So that's what I'm going to work on. Being confident in who I am through Christ, and remembering this precious scripture.

New and Improved

Okay, so I had a revelation today... I am not going to worry about the things that are out of my control. I am not going to spend another moment stressing myself out over someone who needs time to heal. Even though it hurts me to see how much pain they are in, there is nothing I can do. Right now I am just trusting God and letting Him guide me to do what is in His will. He has a plan and I am resting in that. Now I just get to sit back and enjoy dating my best friend. Even with all the junk, I wouldn't change anything. Because when I'm with him, I'm happy. And I'm comfortable and everything just feels right. And I am loving every second of it.
