Beautiful Beyond Measure

We have all heard the adage of "beauty is in the eye of the beholder." When God saw us in our sin there was no beauty to behold. We so many times look for beauty on the surface, but according to Proverbs 31:30, "Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised." So many girls and women have been deceived by the world that there is only beauty in the outward appearance. It was God's unconditional love that showed us the way to have true beauty through salvation. Through Christ's compassion and sacrifice; we have a picture of true beauty.

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 so much
(Encouragement is something that everybody needs. It causes us to wonder about our worth when we are constantly barraged by hurtful words. The contents of our heart tell the hidden secrets. These are things that we do not share with just anybody.)


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
(We have nothing without God, but God chose to take those of us who have accepted Him and use us to reflect the beauty of His Son's sacrifice. Our worth and beauty are in Christ.)

Praying that you have the heart to fight
Cuz 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
(The hurt that we feel can be overbearing, so much that we cannot move forward. All the contents of the heart can be covered by the blood of Christ, and hurts can be healed.)

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

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!
(Before we were on the mind of God, He knew that there was something that would be far greater than anything else that He would create. Jesus gave us our lives back when He laid down His life on the cross.)


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 are made for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful!
You are treasured
You are sacred
You are His
(Beautiful- Mercy Me)

Find beauty in the cross.
