• My worth

  
  

  You are so much more than you can see!
  You are so much more than you think you are!
  You are so much more than you have heard about yourself!
   
  Complete the following sentences with the first thing that comes to you.  Remember to be honest and make sure you think good thoughts.  If you can't think of anything to complete the sentence, make it up!
   
  Use your imagination!  If your thought is 50% believable to you, life will make up the other 50% to support you!
   
  Recognize-YOUR BEAUTY
  I am beautiful because: 

  
  

  I have a good loving heart.  I am caring and I see people with loving in my heart and that makes me beautiful, or so I am told.  I still have a hard time seeing this, I am working on it though
   
  Recognize-YOUR SPIRIT
  I am spiritual because:

  
  

  I love being in communion with God.  I communicate with Him almost continually.  I think on God and what He would want me to do and how to act.  I pray informal and formal prayers and stive to trust Him in every aspect of my life.  I have smelled and felt the presence of God.  This is not because I am special or anything at all, it is probably because I was slipping in my Faith.  I can only guess.  But God chose to bless me on those times, and I was so undeserving.  I mention it because I am more spiritual because of this.
   
  Recognize-YOUR POWER
  I am powerful because:

  
  

  I have the strength of God on my side.  I am working to change my life for the better with God's help.  I am powerful because I have the support of my friends and thier prayers.
   
  Recognize-YOUR GREATNESS
  I am great because:

  
  

  I hope that any greatness that I might have is there becuase of Jesus' light shining through me.  I don't think of myself as being great.  I am simply the way I am.  I have a very difficult time with this because I want so badly to put others before myself, yet I do it to the point of being unhealthy about it.  I strive to be a good person, the one that God wants me to be and God does not want us to think of ourselves as better than anyone.  I am thinking that this isn't what this is saying, it is simply saying pick out something of infinite worth about ourselves.... so here goes.... I feel other's pain.
   
  Recognize-YOUR STRENGTH:
  I am beautiful because

  
  

  I have really pretty hair.  It is auborn, shoulder length, thick and has some wave in it, but not a lot of curls.  It has spiral curls at the base of my neck and near my ears... just the perfect places.  My dh says that since I have lost so much weight he is starting to see my cheekbones and he thinks I am beautiful   I am also strong because I am tenacious, and persistant to a fault sometimes.  I am also stubborn, so when I set my mind on doing something, I usually go about doing it.
   
  Recognize-YOUR TALENTS:
  I am beautiful because

  
  

  I am talented in that I can be creative.  I have lost some of it, or I should say I have lost the space and time to be creative like I used to be.  I used to sew and do handcrafts, but I have so many little hands that want to help me, it isn't feasable at this time.  My creativity is now on computers.  I do graphics, html, webpages, stationary, writing and anything else I can get my hands on lol
   
  Recognize-YOUR ABILITIES:
  I am beautiful because

  
  

  My abilities to care for others, and my empathy.  It is difficult at times for me that I can feel other's pain, it hurts.... but then I also know more of what to do to help... sometimes.  Most times people just need someone to listen to them, and give supportive feed back.  Sometimes God gives me the words to say to help and other times I need to be quiet.  I have an ability to love others and be kind to others.  I have an ability to learn.  I love to read and study the Bible and studies about the Bible.  I love to learn!
   
  I SEE THE GOOD IN ME
  What do you see in me?

  
  

  What do I see in me?  I see someone who is loving and kind and striving to be the person that God wants me to be in all areas of my life.  I am striving to change the things I have been convicted about and areas that are not healthy in my life.  I hope and pray others can see this too, to know that Jesus is in my life.  I don't want any glory for it, to the contrary, I simply want others to see Christ's love through me.  If God wants me to be the one that plants the seed, then I hope and pray that I can be the preson that God wants of me so that I may do His will.
