Beautiful You

One morning while looking in the mirror I noticed all these little black marks on my face. My first comment was, "Jesus what are these marks? I didn't have them when I was younger. Or at least I didn't notice them when I was younger. Where are they coming from Lord?" As I dismissed the thought, put my eyeliner on, and went on with my day, while talking with my co-worker he so boldly pointed at my chin and asked, "What is that mark on your chin?" Instantly my mind went back to my morning thoughts. "Oh, no....a noticeable mark. Lord what is this?" I instantly grabbed my phone and looked in the mirror. And there it was, a black, round mole sitting right there on my chin. There I went with my questions to God, "Lord is that what these marks are? Moles? Am I going to be moley? Is this mole on my chin going to stick out? Are hairs going to start growing out of them? Oh, no Lord that would be the worst? I've seen what hairy moles look like and they are not cute. God they are unattractive and just out right disgusting! Jesus do something with this thing please?" I begged God as I went through my mid-life, I don't look like I did when I was younger, crises! However, God whispered too me in a still small voice as He so often does, "I created you and I didn't make a mistake in placing every little mark that you notice on your face. I do not see it as just a mark I see it as me taking my time with creating beautiful you. It hurts me that you do not love what you see in the mirror because, I the God that created the universe, took special care to create you too. Please love YOU because there is not another YOU in the world. You are fearfully and wonderfully made, unique, and set apart from the rest. Do not take lightly what I have done. I knew you while you were in the womb and I did not make any mistakes in creating beautiful you!"

With that being said! Love Who You Are!
