Call Me Beautiful

What happens when someone says you are beautiful? (Okay this question is probably only for the ladies but men?  By all means answer if you feel the need!)  What happens when someone says it and you know they mean it?  Does it empower you?  Does it boost your confidence?  Does it put a spring in your step?  Does it make you believe that perhaps you are beautiful - inside and out? 
Ginny Owens, blind since the age of 3 because of a degenerative eye disease, sings about what happens when our Creator calls us beautiful.  When our Creator calls us beautiful it trumps any other time we've heard it.  When he calls us beautiful he is doing so seeing the very depths of us, all the nooks and crannies that we hide from others and even ourselves.  When he calls us a beautiful he does so through eyes that see all the knitting together (Psalm 139) that he did to create us.  He holds the definition of true beauty.  And he calls us beautiful according to that definition.  AMAZING. 
Ginny points out what God's affirmation of beautiful does for her - perhaps it does the same for you. 
"Welcome to your life."  Welcome to freedom, welcome to victory, welcome to joy, welcome to all that God holds for you because you believe you are beautiful.

Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play.
