Do You Know You are Beautiful?

Well, I made it through my soccer weekend with a few sore muscles and a couple of minor injuries. I went for a gentle walk this morning with our trusty canine. The sun was up and the birds were out. One of my favorite songs was playing on my MP3 player and I wanted to share the words with you. Many of you might know it;I think that most females can relate to the lyrics:

Beautiful
by Bethany Dillon
I was so unique
Now I feel skin deep
Count on the make up to cover it all
Crying myself to sleep 'cause I cannot keep their attention
I thought I could be strong
But it's killing me
Does someone hear my cry?
I'm dying for new life
I want to be beautiful
Make you stand in awe
Look inside my heart and be amazed
I want to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
Just want to be worthy of love
And beautiful
Sometimes I wish I was someone other than me
Fighting to make the mirror happy
Trying to find whatever is missing
Won't you help me back to glory
You make me beautiful
You make me stand in awe
You step inside my heart, and I am amazed
I love to hear You say
Who I am is quite enough
You make me worthy of love and beautiful
If only we could see ourselves as God sees us through Jesus.

What an awesome song. I know I wish I could hold onto a biblical perspective throughout a whole day but it is so easy to slip into my human nature "stuff"!
