Happy Lord’s Day Beauties!
We begin our journey with the theme, “You Are Beautiful.” Before we dive deeper into the word and what it means to you, it’s imperative we begin with a foundation. That foundation is truth.
“The whole Bible was given to us by inspiration from God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives; it straightens us out and helps us do what is right. It is God’s way of making us well prepared at every point, fully equipped to do good to everyone.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17 (TLB)
The Bible is true, and we can have confidence in believing every word. I will be using scripture in my blog, and I pray you will use your Bible throughout your journey to hear truth from God. Remember John 1:14, “The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.” The Word of God IS Jesus, and He IS truth.
So, what do think? Do you believe the Bible is true? Is there any doubt in your mind? If so, pray for God to reveal why you’re struggling to believe. Selah. (Stop and ponder these things.)
Moving forward in confidence, let’s look at another foundational truth to our journey. John 10:10 says, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”
Do you believe this truth? Do you believe the enemy has played an active role in your life to fill you mind with lies? Those lies have stolen from you and tried to destroy you - but Jesus! Let’s continue reading the scripture. Jesus came that you would have abundant life! The life that He died to give you; a life of joy, peace, and love.
Let’s pause here and offer thanks to God for providing us His truth (the Bible) and for the beautiful life He’s promised us. You may want to verbalize your prayer or write it down in your journal. Selah.
Now we can move on to today’s truth, “You are beautiful.” First, what does this word mean to you? Write in your journal your own definition of beauty. Everyone’s definition may be a little different, so that’s why it’s important for you to define it for yourself.
Once defined, what’s your belief about your relationship with beauty? Be brutally honest. Ask God to show you deep places that reveal any lies the enemy has you believing. Selah.
What is God sharing with you about your true beauty? Has He brought you to a particular scripture? Song? Has He compared you to His beautiful creation in nature? Take time to listen as He leads you to His truth. Selah.
Love and Blessings,
