Hey girl. I see you.

Jesus said to LOVE others as we LOVE ourselves, and yet, as women, we are constantly tearing each other apart. I mean seriously. If there is anything consistent about a woman it's her bitterness towards other women.
What the heck. Why are we like that?
Envy. Anger. Greed. Spite.

Ugh. Those are some nasty words.

As a woman, I know how hard the world is on us.
We are never, never, never good enough.

We have got to uplift and encourage each other.
I remember the hurtful things that people have said to me or about me, but the memories that I could never forget are when people have complimented me, supported me, helped me, lifted me.

We all love that. So why don't we live that?

Here's to the girls;
that color their hair blue and the ones that have never cut their hair.
that wear sweatpants everyday and the ones that wear heels to buy groceries.
that didn't cook supper or do the laundry, because you needed a flipping break today.
that went to Target to get milk and bought a new curling iron instead.
that failed out of school, but you're going back next semester to try again.
the ones with and without makeup.
to the one without a diploma and the one with 12.
that got a divorce, that got pregnant too young, that had a perfect plan and didn't follow it at all.
that color in your eyebrows or shave the side of your head.
to the doctor, the nurse, and the CNA.
to the ones that take extra long showers to escape from your kids.
the sinners and the saints.

I get it that we aren't perfect. But wouldn't life be much easier if we loved like Jesus did? Wouldn't we feel perfect.....

You are beautiful. You are right where God wants you to be. You are holy, righteous, and redeemed.

Even if you only got out of bed to pee and eat today.

We will both do better tomorrow.
All that I am.
Kathryn ♡
