Amazing!!

You made me in an amazing and wonderful way... Psalm 139:14

Imagine with me for a moment the great God in heaven creating His children, His daughters. He thinks of all the daughters and creates them all so unique. He thinks of this daughter and decides that she will have brown hair and brown eyes. The next will be tall and have red hair. The next one will love to sing and dance. And as He creates, he looks back over His work and smiles at His creation. Can you see it? God created us all different and we are all unique. He created each of us with our own special DNA, personality, beauty, talents and even shortcomings! We are all unique and He is pleased with us.

Everything about us is a gift from God. He created us in an amazing and wonderful way, but the sad thing is that we often grumble about what God has created. We stand in the mirror and fuss; we compare ourselves to others and condemn never seeming to be pleased with what we see. Gals, I think we need to rethink this concept of not liking ourselves and focusing on our flaws. If God is pleased with what He created, and He is, then we need to change our attitude, mindset and words about ourselves. We need to begin to see ourselves as amazing and wonderful. When we realize whose we are and know the heart of the One who created us we can change. Then, we can finish Psalm 139:14 as praise to the Lord, "What you have done is wonderful. I know this very well" We can truly say we know this as a daughter of the King. We are made in an amazing and wonderful way; however, we must not talk the talk when we truly do not believe it.

Sadly, in the past I have not always seen myself in an amazing way. I had too many issues, flaws and weaknesses for God to call me amazing, beautiful or wonderful. However, God in His great love, grace and mercy reached down into my heart and saturated me with His love. In the midst of His love, He revealed TRUTH to me as a daughter of the King. The TRUTH he revealed to me changed me from the inside out. I could truly read Psalms 139:14 believing His Word and understanding it. I became grateful for me, and could praise Him for me!

My passion is to share this TRUTH with others just like me. I challenge you to think about "you" and the amazing gifts, talents, and special beauty that you have. Rejoice in knowing that God made you amazing and wonderful. Believe it, it is the TRUTH, and live it in an amazing and wonderful way as a daughter of the King!

Sweet blessings to you,

Relentless..

Some things to think on for today. This blog is for Relentless Women so I thought it would be a good day to think on the word "relentless". Relentless is defined as "never slackening, but continuing always at the same intense, never giving up," according to my computer dictionary. So let's make our relentless personal today.

R- Real
E- Excellence
L- Love
E- Extraordinary
N- Noble Character
T- Trustworthy
L- Life of Joy
E- Elegant
S- Strength
S- Special and unique
Can I be intense about the qualities above being evident in my life today?

Relentless to be like you, Jesus. May the qualities be evident in my life as I represent Jesus to others. May I have a relentless spirit, determined to follow and be more like Jesus everyday. Intensify us Lord in our walk with you as a relentless woman. In Jesus name.

Being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. Colossians 1:11-12

I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3: 14

Relentless Women loving a Relentless Jesus!

Blessings to you!
