Hurry up and go to the store for me
Ï could hear my mothers " rushed tone"and knew it was something needed for supper. I tried to quickly fix my hair and fix my dress. Go Go Go! I need milk right now. The little grocery store was only at the end of our little country road but I always felt shy about giving the man in the store my mothers note with what we needed written on it. The adults always had a way about looking right over the top of my head as if I weren't even there. I ran to look into the little mirror hanging right by our front door and tried to pull my hair away from my eyes and looked again to find that my clothes were a little wrinkled . Mom came again to rush me out with her little note and off I went.
As I think back I must have been about 5 years old.
Saying all this you can see I began very early in life fussing with how I looked. These things were not instilled in me from my mother she was a pretty lady but didn't make much place in life for extra primping and beauty regimes. But Ï did"! I spent much time coloring beautiful colors on the plain vanilla pages of coloring books filled with of Cinderellas Ball room party dresses and filling in the lines of snow whites lovely blue dress with the friendly dwarfs dancing around her. I would save jewelry and collect them in cigar boxes. One day I would have many jewels and elegant party dresses. With little scraps of fabric from my mothers mending I would create new and colorful dresses for my dolls and with my older sisters nail polish I would brighten up the lips of my washed out dolls faces making them bright and happy in their freshly made imaginary Ball gowns.
This is my little girl beginnings. Colors, fancy fabrics,and pretty colored faces floating through her mind every day wishing and hoping she one day dress for the Palace party and meet her prince charming.
My dream came true I did meet my Prince Charming. His name is Douglas and he has bought me many lovely dresses and colorful pieces of jewelry and more important he is a wonderful and loving man and through Gods love gave us both three lovely little girls. He is more than I ever could have dreamed for and so are my children. God has answered so many of my little girl dreams which are really our heartfelt prayers.
I am still and forever His only little favorite girl. Oh, I know He loves all that are part of His family but He still makes "me" feel this "special and precious" way. Creating in me the the beauty and love for His Amazing world of colors, beauty, life and the people in it..
I's breathtaking what I can see every day in the sky, water, trees, the mountains a newborn baby's eyes it's pink rosy cheeks. And the precious importance to help others to see that life is Gods gift to us to enjoy because he loves us so.
Do you desire to be beautiful within yourself ( being happy and complete in who you are inside and out) to feel confident and secure that your features hair, skin,and color is exactly what they are to fit you and no one else. Yes, you are unique and beautiful just the way you were made.
Psalm 139
Oh Lord you have searched me and know me. You have laid your had upon me. such knowledge is too wonderful for me. Where can I go from your Spirit. Or where can I flee from your presence.For you have formed my inward parts in my mothers womb when I was made in secret. How precious are your thoughts of me. If I were to count them they would be more in number than the sand of the sea.
Read all when you have time it is your "Beautiful Beginnings" and Gods "Adoration" for you "Now" and " forevermore". So complete your Journey in this life and let Him show you "His" perfect will and destiny. He has designed one just for you and is watching and encouraging you to become who you are to become day by day. So keep going forward and also keep leaning and trusting in God.
