I am a girl who...

I am a girl who:

loves reading books way more than watching tv
thinks braided hair is beautiful
loves grape juice, or any fruit juice really
enjoys making headbands
laughs entirely too much
has a love for old things
prefers the mountains over the beach
goes days without eye makeup
loves school supplies
is more awkward than socially acceptable
used to like math, well until college.
left part of her heart in Texas
prefers talking over coffee rather than food
cannot wait to be a dedicated wife
as well as a mother
has a really odd sense of humor
has hitchhiked
loves the pastel version of about every color
has feet that are almost always cold
whose favorite flower is a sunflower
loves the books of Romans and James
finds joy in to listening to others
loves my dog more than some humans
is a day person
loves LOVES children
and wants to adopt from a foreign country
had a hardened heart that was pierced by the Gospel of Jesus Christ
has a smile that shows my gums
bites her nails
has a best friend who lives across the country
once was lost in pc world but now is in mac world
has been completely emptied by God
only to be refilled right back up
is striving for godliness with contentment
as well as fighting to be molded into a Proverbs 31 woman
and finally I am a girl who
knows that she is beautiful because of her identity in Christ and not accomplishments or lack of accomplishments


This is me. This is how God made me. I am created in His image. Just as you are too. And that right there, is beautiful.

"For you created my inmost being;
   you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
   your works are wonderful,
   I know that full well."
Psalm 139:13-14
