~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
God created me with function and beauty too.
God knitted me in my mother’s womb. He knew me before I was ever born.
The LORD called me before I was born.
He named me while I was in my mother’s womb. Isaiah 49:1b
And He had then and still has plans for me. He is weaving them into my life moment by moment.
For I know the plans I have for you” — this is the LORD’s declaration — “plans for your welfare, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
Thank You, Father, for loving me with such affection. You want the best for me and have given me the beauty that You want me to have. Inner beauty of a quiet and gentle spirit seems to fit me more often than not. When not, You forgive me and I am grateful. As the spider does the work You have given her to do so well, You have given me gifts and plans that I want to beautifully accomplish too. I call upon Your Name as I pray to be near You with each moment. You are my LORD. I want to glorify You through what You have planned for me. In the Beautiful Name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
