Some times I get so discouraged! Some days I feel overworked, unappreciated, underpaid and like I just want to stomp my feet like a little child, cover my ears and hide in my room. I had a day like that last week, when I had a list of 210 things I needed to do and not nearly enough time to do it in! I was feeling like just quitting and going home and sitting in my jammies and staring at the TV, when on my drive I heard the song "Beautiful" by Mercy Me, it goes like this:
Days will come when you don't have the strength
And all you hear is you're not worth anything
Wondering if you ever could be loved
And if they truly saw your heart
They'd see too much
Chorus
You're beautiful, You're beautiful
You are made for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful, You're beautiful
You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
You're beautiful
Praying that you have the heart to fight
'Cause you are more than what is hurting you tonight
For all the lies you've held inside so long
But they are nothing in the shadow of the cross
Repeat Chorus
Before you ever took a breath
Long before the world began
Of all the wonders He possessed
There was one more precious
Of all the earth and skies above
You're the one He madly loves
Enough to die!
You're beautiful, You're beautiful
In His eyes
You're beautiful!
You are made for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful!
You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
You're beautiful! You're beautiful!
You are made for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful! You're beautiful!
You are treasured
You are sacred
You are His
I was just deeply reminded of how much I am loved and how much the Lord has entrusted me with doing. This includes all of my so called "silly" daily activities. He thinks everything I do is wonderful. He created me to do this job and to trust Him in everything I do. I guess I am still learning to "embrace Cinderella" to love the little jobs that drive me crazy (like 3 grocery store trips in one day because my pregnant brain can't remember anything). I am a work in progress but you know what? I am beuatiful. You are beautiful.
