Do I need lots of make-up?

Father, you've created me in your beautiful image and likeness. In my heart, I know you love me, but I'm constantly confronted with the picture that society paints as beautiful. Help me to realized that you truly know each hair on my head, each gleam of light in my eyes, and every wrinkle when I smile. You mold me as a potter shapes a piece of clay, perfecting each part with your loving hands. I'm the child you envisioned I would be. I am perfect in your eyes, and each day you look upon me in love. Let me always remember that you've created me uniquely and beautifully. Help me to see you each day when I look in the mirror, and to realize that physical beauty is so small in comparison to the beauty of who I am. Amen. -Joan
