			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-598" title="morningglory" src="http://hisbeauty4ashes.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/morningglory-278x300.jpg" alt="" width="278" height="300" />What is &#8220;True Beauty&#8221;?</h3>
<div>  <em>&#8220;I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; </em></div>
<div><em>your works are wonderful,I know that full well.&#8221; </em></div>
<div><em>Psalm 139:14 </em></div>
<div>
<p>So what is &#8220;true beauty?&#8221;</p>
<p>True beauty is<em> </em>finally feeling free in knowing that we are exactly who we are supposed to be, just as we are.</p>
</div>
<div>We are &#8221;fearfully and wonderfully made&#8221; by God, our heavenly Father!</div>
<div>All of our inadequacies, our insecurities, they are not real. The only thing real thing in our life is that <strong>we are a perfectly created child of God</strong>.</div>
<div>
<p>Over the years society, our peers, co-workers, spouses or significant others may have dooped us into taking drastic measures to change who we are physically. Surgeons may have cut our bodies to either add or take away from our heavenly sculptured bodies. We may have allowed insertions of dangerous, foreign substances to smooth our aging skin. We may have also taken drugs to make us not eat.</p>
<p>Beloved sisters, that&#8217;s okay. That was then. This is now.</p>
</div>
<div>There is such freedom and completeness is looking in the mirror and knowing that there is truly only one person&#8217;s opinion that matters when it comes to how we look. That person is not our husband or boyfriend, he is not the new guy in the finance department or <strong>anyone who has an <em>earthy</em> opinion of us</strong>.</div>
<div>
<p>The only person who should matter to us in the One who created us.</p>
</div>
<div>Those &#8220;fluffy&#8221; hips we have had since we can remember, those small breasts that have always made us feel insecure about our overall figure, what ever our own plight it, girlfriend they were given to us for a reason. &#8220;What a cruel joke!&#8221;, is probably something that could be said in response to this, but <strong>there is nothing cruel in how God meticulously wove us together</strong>. We were created with love.</div>
<div>My sisters, let&#8217;s show the world around us that we don&#8217;t give a crap what we are &#8220;supposed&#8221; to look like. <strong>Let&#8217;s show the world how we were</strong> <strong><em>created</em> to look</strong>!</div>
<div>It won&#8217;t happen over night, but it can and will happen. When we are able to completely surrender to letting go of everyone else&#8217;s <em>earthly</em> opinion of us and fully open our hearts to understand that we were indeed, &#8220;fearfully and wonderfully made&#8221; by <strong><em>THE</em></strong> CREATOR, the sky is the limit as to how far we can soar.</div>
<div>Go ahead, give it a try.</div>
<div>Let&#8217;s accept our God given body as the gift that it is, then have a blast dressing, accesorizing and showing off!!</div>
