Loved and lovely. Our little girls are loved and lovely, indeed.
But do they know it?
We can help them know it.
Today I welcome my friend Angie, who gives us an easy and wonderful way to help ground our little girls in God's word and God's love.
(and ourselves, too.)
Why did I write these verses and phrases down for my little
girls and post them above their mirror?
I want them to see the words in front of them, as they get
ready for the day. I want them to read
the words and commit them to memory and to heart. I want them to recite them every time they
look in the mirror. I want them to
believe the words as their own truth, because that is what they are. The truth.
Their truth. Our truth.
I want their habit to be a good one. Not a bad one, like mine. I want their self esteem to be lifted and not
fallen like the heavy snow. I know
what that is like and I want more for them.
This is especially important to me right now, because I have
a tween growing in beauty and intelligence every day. I want this lovely tween to know that true
beauty comes from within and not from the cosmetic counter. I want both of my girls to know that they
were loved before they were even born. I
want them to feel it too. I want them
to know that the Lord has a plan for them and that He will continue to love
them, no matter what.
And maybe, when I have them convinced, I might even start to
believe it myself. But, when this
happens; when I become weak and start to believe the lies that fill my head, I
know that I am still loved.

Do you have a favorite Scripture you would add?
