During a session at launch I was praying and I just started writing down everything I wanted to pray for. One thing led to another and I just started writing down all these insecurities about myself. ON PAPER. I prayed about it and felt confident that the Lord was telling me that I need to pray over these things and get this baggage out of my life.
So yesterday, sitting in the Atlanta airport, I pulled out my bible and started reading about creation.
I was just thinking to myself, “MAN! God is so amazing. He SPOKE all these beautiful things into existence. Sunsets, puppies, sunflowers, stars, the ocean.” I just can’t get over how beautiful you are, Lord.
Then I get to Genesis 1:27.
“So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. “
One more time for the people in the back,
“God created mankind IN HIS OWN IMAGE.”
My goodness. I can look at all these things in the world around me, and look at myself and see nothing. How can I do this when I am created in God’s image?
In the image of the Father I am beautiful. I am His child. I am loved.
So I need to see in the image of myself the beauty because I am a daughter of the almighty God and he is all things good and beautiful.
