Today I began to read "Captivating" let me tell you I could not sit the book down for almost 3 hours. This book is such a eye opener to women everywhere. The book starts out talking about beauty and how every girl from a young age wants to be recognized as being beautiful. We are yearning to hear someone tell us we look beautiful. The one thing that hit me most about this book was, that when God created woman we were is final touch to creation not man but woman. We too as woman bear the image of God. Just as we have a heart for romance, God does too. He wants us to have a relationship with him that is so deep and intimate, more intimate then any man can give you. We have a responsibility to be feminine and live a life of love and love everyone. I know it is hard sometimes to get back on track with some relationships, but (there's that big but) it is very crucial that you do. Especially your relationship with God. I am really really yearning the love of my father it is a hunger that I have deep down inside. If there was a chance that I never find that right person for me I be satisfied with the love of my Father.
Beauty that is another discussion everyone is beautiful whether you want to believe it or not. From the inside out we are beautiful. Want to know how I know that? "Well, wasn't it God who created us in his image?". It says;
"So God created people in his own image;
God patterned them after himself;
male and female he created them"
Gen 1:27
This is one of the most important verses in the bible we all us human were created from our heavenly father! We all have the same characteristics as he does, and we all look like him. Even though we may be black or white or any other skin colour we all look like our father. To me that is beautiful. That is why it is important for woman to know they are beautiful. Not because some magazine tells you, that you are because God himself has spoken it to all of us.
This is so fascinating to me, I admit I have had my doubts in the past on the way I look and still do I'm not perfect, but I know God thinks I am. I am perfect to him and to my future boyfriend or even husband whoever that may be. I need to drill this into my head, and realize how important this information actually is to me.
