Five Minute Friday: Beautiful


A little brown, straight haired girl with crooked bangs and a lopsided grin, all laughter and fun and mischievous glancing straight your way. 

A too mature body on a too young heart.  Braces, glasses and an awkward way of talking.  Freckles so many and boys moving too fast in your direction. 

The first glimpses of woman, tiny, petite and not yet of great substance.  Formed by the suggestions of those around her, some good, some not, but all impacting her heart, her self, her soul. 

The blossoming of femininity, senses catching up with heart, a growing of self and a view which can only come from God for in its frame is a picture of loveliness. 

Allowing another to come into your life and twine as “one” should be a beautiful thing,  a union to bring the lovely into one another….but, not always is this the case. 

A season of motherhood revitalizing what is good about a person’s soul and reminding them of the responsibility to care and nurture and love….thank God for these little blessings.  They are the reminder that to God…..we are all beautiful.

A woman of faith, imperfect and failing, grasps His hand and walks a journey no one else can understand but one which saves. 

Rebirth comes to us if we allow and open our hearts to God’s compassion, His mercy, His grace.  It is all there waiting for all there wanting for all there needing a soul’s revision in life. 

For ultimately, the only matter that our lives make is in that it carries us continuously back to the One who crafts us…..


Beautiful
