PS: I'd love to hear your feedback on this one! I love hearing about people's dreams, goals and ideas! I'd love to hear yours!
Thank you for your incredibly beautiful photography! You have a great gift! Sometimes I struggle with looking young for my age and have to remind myself that God created me for a good purpose. I am a beautiful woman of God even if others sometimes misunderstand me, say careless, hurtful things, and look down on me or overlook me as a child. From all that, I have learned that everyone deserves to be taken seriously even the young. Today I wanted to find a photo to remind myself of the truth that I am a beautiful daughter of God - His Princess - and when I came across your princess photographs I was completely awed - That's it! :) Thank you for being who you are, for your gifts as an artist, for touching my heart deeply, and for letting God speak through you :) Much love and God bless! P.S. I dream of being a writer :)
ReplyDeleteKatie...wow....I can't tell you how much reading your post blessed me this morning and how much God used what you wrote to confirm a prayer I had just breathed in the voice of my heart this morning.
ReplyDeleteI have been praying, "God, I really want to touch the hearts of women. I want them to see themselves as cherished and beautiful and loved by You. I want them to see the value instilled in them."
But I also struggle as a photographer and artist sometimes, wondering, "Is anyone out there really reading this blog? Is anyone out there really looking at my photos? Is what I'm doing having any impact at all?"
Your comment really blessed me and it was like an answer to that prayer. Thank you, because it gave me encouragement to keep posting and keep taking pictures. People may not respond all the time, but your response sure made it all worth it. : )
I hope that you feel beautiful and worthy and cherished and special...because you truly are. Things on the outside change as quickly as the clouds moving in the sky on a cloudy day, but you as a whole remain forever and every woman has beauty, even if she can't see it.
"Fear not; you will no longer live in shame. Don't be afraid; there is no more disgrace for you. You will no longer remember the shame of your youth and the sorrows of widowhood. For your Creator will be your husband." Isaiah 54:4-5
You have a purpose and a future and it's a good one filled with hope. Thanks for stopping by--I'm glad that you did! : )
"The generous will prosper; those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed." -Proverbs 11:25
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to hear how God used my post to encourage you in your gifts/calling and that your life really does make a positive difference to others. You've made a lasting impression on mine in helping me to see myself as a beautiful woman of faith and daughter of God, and I know He will use you to bless many others as well - So keep shining for Him! He works it all for good :)
Thank you so much for your beautiful second comment, Katie : ) Google's Blogger system had a major issue these last few days and a lot of people's blog posts and comments, etc. disappeared when they were doing updates. Blogger found some kind of corrupted whatever and almost everyone with a blog had the disappearing blog problem. I was able to read your comment that you wrote because it was sent to me via email, but it disappeared from here. Thank you so much for blessing me again. You are such a sweetheart! : )!
