Blossom
My adult daughter has questions about whether or not she will meet a man who will make her happy. She shared she wants someone who thinks she is the most beautiful thing in the world and can't wait to be with her. I told her that is every woman's wish, mine included and I have been married for 12 years. She questions her own beauty and value. These questions hurt my heart, as her mother. I can only imagine how you hurt when I question my beauty or worth. I went to the flower shop today and bought three of the most beautiful pink flowers I could see, a rose and two gerber daisys. I delivered them to her at work with a card which read something along the lines of "When you look at nature, do you see how creative and beautiful and detailed all creation is? If God takes the time to create a flower so detailed and so beautiful, would He not take even more time to create you so detailed and so beautiful. The flower does not question its details or beauty, it continues to grow and blossom. Stop questioning your worth and your beauty. Each day that you believe that God loves you and he created you to be beautiful, then each day you will continue to grow and blossom too." She told me she put the card in her daytimer to read again and again. Thank-you for your Grace.
