Written by Maxine Harrison, a contemporary writer.

In the world of today, ‘real beauty’ is often defined by an individual’s appearance; but God looks at our true beauty and identity which is found in Christ who lives inside of us (1 Samuel.16;7, Galatians. 2:20). God says we are fearfully and wonderfully made in His image (Psalm 139:14, Genesis 2:7) and that He has chosen to use you to be ‘His own special treasure’ (Deuteronomy 7:6). You have astonishing potential and ‘through God working in you, you are able to accomplish infinitely more than you might ask or imagine’ (Ephesians 3:20). What more could you want or need? … we serve a God who genuinely loves and cares for us. The whole process of God putting in so much effort to save us, so that we may have a relationship with Him, is an amazing concept in itself and all contributes to the unbreakable love that He portrays.

I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works;  my soul knows it very well. [Psalm 139:14]
