loved

I am truly amazed at the lengths women will go to be noticed and to be loved, myself included.

I strive to be noticed. I hate to be thought of as unattractive or unloved by people. Yet, I'm constantly asking myself why it matters, especially when the God of this universe knows that I am beautiful and loved.

I have one tattoo that has the verse "You are altogether beautiful, my darling, and there is no blemish in you." - Song of Solomon 4:7. I have another tattoo that reads "Beloved". I got both of those tattoos as reminders for God's unending love for me.

But yet I still ache to be seen.


However, I can't help but realize that I am not alone in this.

And all I can say is...stop. God's love is so great. He can be anything you ask Him to be. He can be your daddy, He can be your groom, He can be your best friend. It doesn't matter what television or magazines tell you. It doesn't matter if you're not a model by the world's standards. You're beautiful in God's eyes. We have no one to impress, we only have a God who's love reaches beyond what our feeble minds can comprehend.

No human love will ever fully satisfy you.
This I have learned first hand.

Make some space for the One who deserves it.
