The Beautiful Woman

Her eye's sparkle because the love of Christ shine's through them,

Her hands, though gentle are calloused because she use's them to serve others everyday,

She may not be a size 3, but she knows that her worth goes far beyond the number on the scale,

She gives her time to others, even if it means sitting on the couch letting her 3 year old put stickers all over her face, because she knows that these times are precious and she can never get them back!

She cries easily, because she loves deeply, She cries over pain and joy, both for herself and others,

She is strong for those who need help and strong enough to ask for help when she is weak,

She desires to live a life that is pleasing to God and she desires to help others do the same,

She reminds herself daily, that this life is not about her, she takes no delight in self pitty, self centeredness or just plain self!

She admits her wrongs, her faults and her mess ups and she takes ownership of them and does her best to make them right.

She is beautiful because she lives under the shadow of the wings of the almighty and she is beginning to look more like him everyday.

Lord please help me be a truly beautiful woman....
