Be Your God-Created Self!

Be You, Beautiful!  BE YOU!

Doing anything else is too much work. Hard work at that. Pretending to be somebody we’re not or swallowing our opinions because of what others might think, is tiring and unhealthy. Living like this for years can cause emotional harm if we begin to believe there is something wrong with us and right with everybody else.

Well here’s the truth: “We are the clay, You are the potter, we are all the work of Your hand.” Every single one of us is made in the image and likeness of God!

It doesn’t matter what others think of how tall, short, light, dark, fat, skinny, you are, where you live or don’t live, the kind of job you have, whether you talk with your hands, or like being a quiet introvert.  Thank God for the creation gifts He has given you, including your personality and features. You are to honor Him with how He made you.

Lord, help every reader of this grow in their love of the creation gifts you blessed them with. Help each one see Your handicraft when they look at themselves and others. Grow them in greater health: emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. May they glorify You and You alone with the fullness of their lives.
