"Well I've never been a fashion queen / I wear dresses, I wear jeans / I’ve even been known to wear my heart on my sleeve / I’m just your average kid next door / A plain, simple mystery / I’m a self-proclaimed Daddy’s girl / With my share of idiosyncrasies / But You love me for me / And I’m just fine / I see a smile from Heaven / My Father is proud / I know that I am simply, fearfully and wonderfully made in You / You make it beautiful somehow" ~lyrics by Joy Williams

You are more then enough...
I have struggled, as a lot of females do, over the years with feeling like I wasn't enough. Not good enough, not smart enough, not pretty enough, not kind enough... the list goes on. It is a certain mind frame that I feel like females fall trap to way to often and Satan loves to use it against us. There is an amazing book that I have read called Captivating, by John and Stasi Eldredge. It speaks such truths about the things a female thinks and feels about herself. It also speaks such truth about the way God sees us. It was the truth about the way God sees me that He spoke quietly into my heart the other night. Satan was telling me lies and I was feeling down, but I could feel God just tugging at my heart. He wants to be the one whose words we believe, so I started listening. "I created you... I chose you... I love you... You are more then enough, simply because you are my daughter, and I made you in my image. Let me love you... Let me comfort you... Let me tell you that you are more then enough." God is amazing and the way that He speaks and loves is even more incredible. I am so blessed to be loved by a God like that.
