Beautiful

In every sense of the word this is what I long to be. There are two songs that are both entitled "beautiful" that I feel depict what this word should mean to us as women/daughters of the King. The first by Bethany Dillion says, " I want to be Beautiful, Make You stand in Awe......Look inside my heart and be amazed...I long to hear You say, who I am is quite enough.....Just want to be worthy of Love and Beautiful." I long for the Lord to look at my heart , and for someone else someday to see my heart far more impressive and beautiful than my outward appearance could ever even have potential to be, and in seeing an overflow of my beautiful heart and love for the lord that He would find me beautiful outwardly as well.

The other song that comes to mind is one by the great Ginny Owens entitled " You call me Beautiful" that says this: " And you call me Beautiful....say You've loved me all along and You've always held the keys to unlock my soul while you call me Beautiful" To call something Beautiful is the highest form of compliment I believe. Its more than just nice, or pretty........Its an overwhelming geunine fondness and gravitation towards something as a whole......You thoroughly enjoy the overall presence of this thing/person.....It is breathtaking and yet so full of grace and peace and has a weird way of drawing you into it. I like to refer to the Lord as much as possible and am hopeful that someday I mightbe privelaged to be seen as this.
