"You are Beautiful"
These three simple words are what millions of women long to hear. Whether we are eight years old twirling in our new dress, or we are in our twenties going on a date or even when we are middle aged and married with grown children, ALL women long to hear these three simple words.
Just look at our society and how it treats beauty. You turn on the TV and after ten minutes of watching you have probably seem at least one if not two commercials for mascara. Now mascara can only do so much. What society is truly marketing is beauty. They know that what women truly want is to be seen as beautiful. How many times have you looked at a magazine cover and seen "YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL" on the cover? Its always Lose 10 pounds or How to Dress Sexier or something along those lines. Society never tells us that we are beautiful, but we long for those words. And some women will try anything to have these words said to them. Wearing clothes that don't reflect our dignity as women, developing an eating disorders because society has this cookies cutter mold of what beautiful is supposed to look like, and even plastic/ cosmetic surgery to Physically change the way we look. But this does not have to happen.
The reality is that we have a God that tells us we are beautiful each and everyday. Song of Song 4:7 "Ah my beloved, How BEAUTIFUL you are." Our God created us. He knows everything about us and yet He sees us as truly and utterly beautiful. We are is precious daughters and He loves us as the perfect father would. Yes, God the King of the universe is our father.
And what is the daughter of a King? A PRINCESS! Yes, you my dear, are a princess. But not a princess in the sense of every eight year old's fantasy. But a princess because we are the precious daughter of a King and we the kingdom's most prized and beloved person. That He the King would lay down His life to save us. He would DIE for us.
He did Die for us. He humbled Himself, the King of the Universe, to be born to woman and come down to earth to save us. He came and died on a cross for US! So that we can have our inheritance. HEAVEN! He did that because He loves us more than we can ever imagine. And that gives us worth. We are priceless to Him. We are his priceless masterpiece. "For we are his workmanship." Ephesians 2:10
We as women are beautiful. You reading this YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. And you are loved more than you will ever know but your father the King of the Universe. NEVER EVER forget that. If you take those three single words to heart you life, your world, you will never be the same.
In Him through Her,
Jes
