My dear sweet sisters,
As many of you know I have two blogs, this one and The Sisterhood of Beautiful Warriors. “Warriors” is an outgrowth of “Real Hope.” You see, when God heals you and you hope again, you join all who went before you and all who you stand with now. You no longer are victims but victors.
Victory in Christ. Do I hear an AMEN?!
So I’ve decided to integrate them. Once or twice a week you’ll see the Warrior graphic. It’s your reminder to get dressed to battle and do battle with God against evil. Join me.
I turned my backside toward the bathroom mirror and peeked over my shoulder. Dimples? Ugh.
My middle child told me the other day, “I’m not pretty.” She is drop-dead gorgeous. Gray eyes that sometimes turn blue or green. Lashes that go on forever. In jest (but in all seriousness!), I say,
“Stop lying or I’ll have to put you over my knee.”
“You wouldn’t mom, would you?”
“Just try me.”
I smile big. She smiles big.
My eldest is 20 and, of course, gorgeous. Chocolate brown eyes, perfect eye brows, thick hair that she used to hate because it wasn’t stick straight. She doesn’t like how she looks in a swim suit. What woman does?
In my counseling, so many, many women say they’re ugly. They have a warped mirror. What about you? Do you embrace yourself, your shape, size, color, your uniqueness?
Please watch this short music video and listen carefully to the last verse. It’ll touch you deep. Turn down my music player first and leave a comment if you have a moment. Thanks.
Remember, You Are Beautiful because You Are in Christ!
