Zits and Cover-up

I am assured that God works for my good in all circumstances. Romans 8:31-39

I got my hair cut today - I feel like a new woman! Ladies treat yourselves, love yourselves...

I am free from any condemnation brought against me and I cannot be separated from the love of God. 2Corinthians 1:21-22

Never separated from the love of God

Friday- Last night I cried myself to sleep over petty life issues- woke up with puffy darkened eyes, and a pimple smack in the middle of my forehead- of course it would pop up in a place where I can't cover it with hair - all I wanted was my cover-up and a bit of mascara-

I couldn't look at myself and say I was beautiful- it was like I was handed the go back 10 spaces card in the game of life and self acceptance...

As the day wore on it just went horrendous...but I made it through the day...

I have been established, anointed and sealed by God. 2Corithians 1:21-22

Saturday- today was much better- no dark circles, no puffy eyes, but still that zit-sigh we can't all be perfect...

My most supportive and amazing boyfriend asked if he could take me out on a nice dinner date- horrified at goign somewhere nice with no make up I started to refuse but he insisted that he wanted to take me out even if I wasn't wearing my makeup.

So I dressed up, did my hair, and put on no makeup. By the end of the meal I had forgotten- I felt beautiful and cherished.

As I thought about this I wondered why I felt so loved by a man and not by God- I wish I could have more moments like this- spured on by thoughts of God- I want to float on cloud nine when I think of how God makes me feel.

hmmm still pondering... and feeling beautiful.
