Good Noon Day to you all.

I have been a little reflective and quiet this day. I ironed a pretty apron the red,white and blue one. I dressed in skirt and top with necklace and earrings. Sorta quiet beauty. I breath the beauty of Gods loving kindness flowing through me today. Sorta sad but not exactly. Reflective of holiness and all that is right and good. Sorrowfully of the opposing truths around me that are a matter of darkness and hardness of the hearts of mankind. The EGO of it all and the sobering image of the downfall before them.
I went to Wal-Mart to get a few things. When I entered the Elder Gentleman in the scooter said his spiel and then said how are you...? I answered. I am reflective and peaceful today Sir, then I noticed the bars on His hat brim.. Where did you serve I asked him... Then I thanked him. Startled he reached out and took my hand and kissed it as if I were the most beautiful woman on this planet.
I weep as I type this, I don't know why, but I weep.
I have wasted a life time missing the beauty of who I am. I have watched Esteem become mine and now I think after that other post I weep for all the years of not having one.
I weep too for all of you who like myself, may be spending your priceless days looking down on your beautiful image. It is written that we are created in HIS image. How we have bought into the lie hook, line and sinker that he sure must be homely and low. Is that how you are seeing yourself today?
I feel grieved that I believed that lie, I am MADE IN HIS IMAGE, I AM BEAUTIFUL. Fifty pounds over weight with a pimple on my chin beautiful. Not that I want to have those things on me., but when I was thin, clear skinned and gorgeous I lived in a lie that God image, you know the one , that form I was created in, had to be critiqued and criticized constantly.

I ironed my apron today and It adorns me a beautiful wife, mother and daughter of my God. It is HIS D.eath N.Ascension and Reserection , I look like my father. I am affiliated in my father my Creator God.
There, I stopped crying. I feel grounded no apologies.

This is a very good post today!
We do put ourselves down way too much!! God lifts us up!!

Older women likewise teach the younger women...

• how to love their husbands
• how to love their children
• how to be self-controlled
• how to be pure
• how to be keepers at home
• how to be kind and submissive (not subservient) to their own husbands. (See Titus 2:3-5)

By Maya Angelou

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, Now I'm found and forgiven.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.

When I say.. 'I am a Christian' I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I still feel the sting of pain...
I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name.

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

Words have power. Here are a few of my favorite sayings.

  • A warm cup of tea is like a cuddle with a friend.
  • The North American Indians have a more eloquent word for ‘friend’ than we do in English. In their language, the word for friend literally means, “the one who carries my sorrows on his back.”
  • Return with Honor
  • The sage anticipates things that are difficult while they are easy, and does things that would become great while they are small. All difficult things in the world are sure to arise from a previous state in which they were easy, and all great things from one in which they were small. Therefore the sage, while he never does what is great, is able on that account to accomplish the greatest things."
  • "HOME IS WHERE YOUR STORY BEGINS"
  • “Live so that when your children hear these words they think of you… Fairness Caring Integrity Honesty Love Trust.”
  • "O Lord help my words to be gracious and tender today, for tomarrow I may have to eat them."
  • "No man has ever been shot while doing the dishes"

Zephaniah 3:17 NLT
