What I Know Best
An expert by definition is, “a person who has special skill or knowledge in some particular field.” I am far from an expert in any field, as I am just merely a few months short of 25 years old. I am however able to express my opinions, experiences, and insights with the hope to encourage, motivate, or inspire who ever may come across these expositions. With these things said I am going to start my blogging adventure with what I know best… “girl stuff.”Celebrating differences with confidence and joy is the first part to this blog. Before I get started I would like to invite you to follow up weekly to discover what God’s word has to say. I pray that it may bring insight,peace, and a smile to your heart! A simple outcry of praise is what I have to offer today, ” I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.” ~Psalm 139:14
Being a woman in todays society is not an easy task by any means! Self confidence is easily robbed, and difficult to recover. There are countless notions, images, and schemes in todays society that can easily warp a young girls, and even a womans mind to the point that she may forget about herself as an one of a kind unique creation! The following video clip is produced by Dove, it is a powerful image that conveys the forces of media, advertising, and marketing that can submerge women into the deep darkness of poor body image, and low self esteem.
Let me make one thing very clear I am not against beauty products, I am not against fashion trends, or makeovers! I greatly enjoy all of those things! This is not a rage of femenism, it is simply a praise of individual qualities that women obtain and should observe and give thanks to the Lord for! As a woman a great thought to remember is that, ” you are God’s specially formed workmanship, designed by a perfect Creator and loving Father. You wear a designer label embossed with God’s own fingerprint! You were created to do good works that God has prepared especially for you. You are a designer original” ~Karol Ladd
I pray that you will give thanks to the Lord for his craftsmanship in you! Give thanks to Him for special qualities and attributes you obtain. He has made you EXACTLY as He would have you to be!
