I can relate to Kristian, I just got back from the beach and it can be so hard not to compare myself to others. (Wish I'd read this post before I left!! Ha!) Anyway, love the reminder that I am Elohim's work of ART. Awesome truth Krystee. I can relate to Kristian, I just got back from the beach and it can be so hard not to compare myself to others.

Sometimes I wish sweat pants and t-shirts were the norm for beach attire! I am SOOOO critical of myself, and I really do need to thank God for how perfect he made me.

She is deaf. She is beautiful and healthy in every other way but her name sat on a special needs list for months before she was finally matched with her family. Upon arriving back in the States, my friend's father began badgering her as to when they were going to "have Maddie fixed". (his words). Heather (the mom) finally told him that Maddie isn't broken! God made her perfect and she is happy and well adjusted. She communicates just fine with every one she meets...hearing and non hearing. Now- they ARE praying about certain procedures and having Maddie evaluated for them, but in the mean time... Maddie is a perfect creation in Christ Jesus. We also have had many caring and curious people ask us why we adopted a special needs child--a child we really knew very little about before going to China to get her...Ruby has turned out to have very few "issues" but we stepped out on faith and have been so rewarded by God with this precious little butterbean and we also know she is perfect for us.

I'm very critical of myself. When I'm critical of myself I'm really insulting my Creator... He made me this way. I love Psalm 139! The entire chapter... He made me with such love and such detail. When I forget Him as Elohim, I read this passage and I find peace in knowing He doesn't make mistakes! ;-) Alright, I will admit this one is hard for me. I’m very critical of myself.

On me, I thought they were ugly, but on her they were stunning. God showed me how to Him we are his beautiful creation. He loves us and every other beautiful human creation on the planet. We cannot fathom the love our Creator has for us and for us to think ANYTHING that He created is less than stunning, we are not looking through the Father's eyes. Ladies, You are Stunning.

Thank you. I rarely feel like a work of art, and need to start looking through my creator's eyes a little more. I love this, Krystee. Thank you.
