Beautiful Girl

A few nights ago I was privileged to go to a Maidenhood Party (so glad I was able to get it off work) and there were a lot of girls my age there. They all seemed so perfect....So beautiful... And me in all my humanness think "I want to be beautiful like them" not thinking that I am beautiful the way God made me. I feel like because I struggle a lot with thoughts and things that I'm not beautiful, that I couldn't hold myself together in times of trouble. But the truth is I cant. I cant survive on my own. I can't live this life. And there is no way I could be perfect and beautiful. Guess thats part of why I love the song "make something beautiful" by Laura Story so much, is because it reminds me the everyday Jesus is making something more beautiful. Me.
The most beautiful thing about me is my Jesus :) He makes me beautiful <3 He shows me how to live <3 
Thank you Jesus
For making me beautiful
For giving me strength to live a life for you
And for forgiving me the ugly mistakes I make 
<3 Love <3
Your child,
Karis
