Who I See in You

I accidentally stumbled across this on a random blog on the internet and it just blessed me and spoke to me and my current state! I just love how God uses these "accidents" to speak to us! I think this is so beautiful and inspiring! So, I thought I would share it with all my young single girls! Please pass this along! :)

God has designed you to be a Queen, not a pauper! So wait for your King, don't settle for anything less! God has destined you to be so much more than you give yourself credit for! Be shaped and molded by HIS image of you! 

Who I See in You

(I have no idea who this is by, if anyone knows please let me know!)

She is elegant and graceful and her beauty is like the rarest of pearls. Her beauty is rare only because the deepest part of it lies in the depth of her character. It is rare because it is not flaunted for the attraction of men, for that beauty is shallow and self serving, and for that reason it is not beauty at all. Her beauty is so awesome that she doesn’t even have to be physcially endowed to be wonderfully attractive. She does not try to seduce or beguile because true beauty needs no help in honest attraction.

Grace -- Your Get Out of Hell Free Card.

Many questions are asked today by Christians regarding Grace, that is the unmerited favor of God. One of the most popular is, "Can a Christian backslide?" Well, before we jump to a quick response, we should take a look at the Word of God and see what it has to say about the matter, after all the Bible should be the deciding factor, not a man's opinion.


Now there are many patterns of thought on this subject, but I will list the two most extreme. One line of thought is that you must achieve salvation through your works and you constantly lose you salvation and constantly have to repent and work out, through good deeds, your salvation. The other line of thought is once saved, always saves or that because we are under grace we can do no wrong and can't backslide.

First, let us discuss what grace actually is. Grace typically refers to that act of Jesus on the cross. That is, the Father's unconditional love for mankind and the sacrifice of His son Jesus to redeem us from sin and the curse, being made a curse for us (Gal.3:13).
