And He said to me,
“Love, do you think that I intended for beauty to be diluted by the unsubstantial standards of society? That measure and govern attractiveness by the length of your eyelashes or by the ideal number of inches around your chest. Beloved, beauty is more than concealing, contouring, brightening, and tracing; more than the irrelevant canon enforced by the glossy paper illusions of impossibly thin porcelain figures.
Beauty is not in the unmarred, but in My scars, that sing of My excruciating sacrifice in order to call you Mine. It is My eternal love for you carved into My skin.
To be beautiful is to be adorned with grace like priceless diamonds around your heart, a heart, that mirrors Mine, and beats for the abandoned and the destitute. It is not a characteristic that is meant to be gawked at or ‘appreciated’, instead, beauty is meant to remind you of My Mercy and Glory.
Dearest daughter, you might scale your reflection and decide that you look nothing like the women you find in the world’s representation of beauty, and that’s precisely what I want. Maybe then you’ll finally start to realize that I am raising you to be beautiful according to heavenly principles. Which are not only of a timeless beauty, like Esther’s courage or Ruth’s faithfulness, but also a universe-shifting one, like Christ’s compassion.
And Talitha, you are so beautiful to Me.”

”I think you could fall in love with anyone if you saw the parts of them that no one else gets to see. Like if you followed them around invisibly for a day and you saw them crying in their bed at night or singing to themselves as they make a sandwich or even just walking along the street and even if they were really weird and had no friends at school, I think after seeing them at their most vulnerable you wouldn’t be able to help falling in love with them.”

God… If it’s not from you then please take it away. But if it is… omgeeee
내 꿈엔 하나님과 엄마가있다.
나를 눈동자 같이 지켜주시는 주님과 항상 날 위해 기도해주시는 어머니가 있기에… 나는 내가 하는일에 최선을 다하면된다. 두려울거 하나없다.
He is faithful to me… but He is most faithful to Himself. All for His glory. Amen.
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
John 16:33
Thankful for sisterhood.
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
Thankful for my weaknesses.
God… I think I finally know now…. Can You please provide?
Sike, You’re already working on it. Thanks Dad c:
