When a boy was asked if he knew who I was, he replied: "She's has an interesting look." I know it sounds a little demeaning, but I took it as a compliment, as all of you should. I have never wanted to look boring or just like everybody else so I am glad to be interesting.
One girl walked by me on one of my vintage outfit days and said: "You look like you should be in a magazine." Now if you have trouble thinking of compliments, this is a lovely one! Pass it on.
Here a few from my best friend on my birthday:
Ok so not all of those were compliments, but at least they were funny.
Take a moment to soak in these thoughts about how God has created you.
"13For you formed my inward parts;
you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. 14I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works;
my soul knows it very well. 15My frame was not hidden from you,when I was being made in secret,
intricately woven in the depths of the earth. 16Your eyes saw my unformed substance;in your book were written, every one of them,
the days that were formed for me,
when as yet there was none of them."
Psalm 139:13-14
Every one of you was made in His image, carefully formed for His glory. He knows everything about you and loves you perfectly. I hope that you are not only encouraged by those around you, but that you look to your Savior to find your worth. You are His beloved.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
