who we become.

so, it took me 2 whole months to read the book captivating. what's the reason it took me so long you ask? because i learned so much from this book. sometimes i would read a page a day & just reread it because i wanted to take in everything it had to say. however, i know i do not remember every single line out of that book. i did highlight many parts & look upon them often to remember certain areas that i may struggle with. i have to say that it is a book every woman should read. this book came at a very great time for me as well. the Lord placed this as my first book to read after Christmas because He knew what i was going to endure.

i have grown up with the feelings of not being good enough for a lot of people, my family, boys, friends even. i wrestle with those thoughts&feelings every day. the only person who needs to validate my beauty and worth is the Lord. no one else. not friends, not boys, not family. & that should be enough for all of us. we shouldn't need the attention of a million people to validate what we do, say, feel, look like; we shouldn't need people to validate who we are or who we become.

today, my prayer is that you and i keep our eyes fixed on this fact: the Lord is enough for us. the Lord will provide everything we need.

no family, no relationship, & no friend can do that.

in His Love--
