Let me be your eyes.

Sometimes I look at others and think this, 

Why is it that we are so hard on ourselves.

I think self-hatred,
self-doubt, 
& self-mutilation
are some of the saddest sins.

And yet we succumb to them everyday.

It's so easy to see the beauty in others,
why can't we see it in ourselves.

If you can't see the beauty in yourself,
ask someone else what gifts and talents they think you have.
And then live out of them.

"In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you. If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well. If your give is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it giving, give generously..." (Romans 12: 6+)

    Thanks for the reminder, Danielle!
