Day 6 "You Are Lovely"
Good Morning Beauties!
Welcome to our second stanza and the second Godly attribute ... lovely. What do you think of when you hear that word? What pictures flash through your mind? For me, "lovely" has always meant "soft, fragile, delicate." All things I never considered myself...until I started my 40 day journeys. Through my journeys, God has shown me Truth about this word; lovely is also strong.
If we look to Webster's Dictionary, here is what we find, "delightful for beauty, harmony, or grace." What is something that has all these attributes? Ballet and the Ballerina. Did you think the same thing? When watching a ballerina dance, we see beauty, harmony, and grace. A great ballerina makes every move seem effortless.
The truth is far from it....it takes much effort and strength. The ballerina must place all her weight on her toes. They hold her up and allow her to move. Have you ever wondered how on earth she can jump and leap and land on her toes? She has a strong foundation holding her up which allows the rest of her to glide across the floor like a soft, graceful butterfly. We have strength holding us up too - JESUS! He is our firm foundation who we can place our trust. We find our strength in HIM who allows us to be the lovely women He created us to be.
What is God showing you about your loveliness today? Selah.
Love and Blessings,
Kendra
