I continue my quest to become not just the person God wants me to be but the woman God wants me to be. It is a God-directed quest and I confess I never would have had the courage or strength to travel the road of femininity without God’s constant prodding. I have been wounded as a result of being female and somewhere along the way learned to close my heart and mind to the reality that I am a woman. Many things have changed about me over the last several months. The changes have occurred on the inside and the outside.
As I learn to become more comfortable with the fact that God created me to be a woman, I realize that God has given each woman her own unique beauty. And one woman's beauty has nothing to do with another woman's beauty. My beauty...and your beauty...stands on its own. And one woman's beauty does not take away from another woman's beauty. Did you get that? Another woman’s beauty does not take away from your beauty.
Our beauty as individual women is enough because God gave it to us. And because God gave our beauty to us, no one can take it away unless we let them. Recognize your incredible, God-given beauty and do not let anyone...even yourself...take it away from you.
