Follow up post of "Who Says"

Who says that you are not beautiful?  Who says that you don't pass the test or can't be the best? or who says that your not perfect?

It's NOT God talking..

At times, I struggle with thinking am I good enough?  or that I look ridiculous?
I have so many defects, faults.  Even my character is shady at times, for 
I'm quick to judge. 
           quick to criticize myself, and others.  I have big legs, someone else has ears that are too big. 
All of us feel this way (esp us women).. sometime or other
I am positive.  (yes it may seem like others don't, but I believe it is a cover up.  They do feel this way at times, they JUST will NOT admit it)

We want to feel loved, to be told we are beautiful, but so often we
FAIL to tell others how we love them and that they are gorgeous.

The fact:
We are nothing without God.  We can't be good enough, we can't pass the test, can't be beautiful.

The best fact ever. Amen:
We are everything with God.  We are Beautiful, We pass the test!  We are created in His image, God doesn't make mistakes.  We are everything.  Repeat after me...

"I am Beautiful"

No good at changes

It seems like we as a couple have made so many changes/ decisions in the last months....some tough, some easy.  But with all.. comes the questions of what if?  What if it was the wrong decision, what if we said no and should have said yes.. or vs?  Life has a way of making you doubt.  Sometimes you WILL doubt.  But there also comes a time, where you have to just accept.  Accept that God has given you the right decision! even if later you doubt.

We were given a file of a beautiful little girl to review last week.  After pleading with God for answers..
we said no.  The hardest decision in my life.  Hardest. Ever.

My heart wonders, questions pour all around me.   But so at peace.... shhh, God calms, "I have lead you this far, I will continue to lead.. Listen to me, Child."

Lead me with strong hands, Stand up when I can't! 

Protect these children, Lord, be their Dad!  Allow them to feel your love!
