You're Beautiful!

One of the toughest things to convey to our kiddos adopted at an older age is their worth in God's eyes. It's a near impossible perspective to them.
So, to all our children, here are the words I'd like you to hear.
And to all my mama friends who have days like I do...it's for you (and me) too! Love you!

Beautiful ~ Mercy Me
Days will come when you don't have the strength
And all you hear is you're not worth anything
Wondering if you ever could be loved
And if they truly saw your heart
They'd see too much

You're beautiful, You're beautiful
You are made for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful, You're beautiful
You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
You're beautiful

Praying that you have the heart to fight
Cuz you are more than what is hurting you tonight
For all the lies you've held inside so long
But they are nothing in the shadow of the cross

You're beautiful, You're beautiful
You are made for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful, You're beautiful
You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
You're beautiful

Before you ever took a breath
Long before the world began
Of all the wonders He possessed
There was one more precious
Of all the earth and skies above
You're the one He madly loves
Enough to die!

You're beautiful, You're beautiful
In His eyes

You're beautiful!
You are made for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful!
You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
You're beautiful!
You are made for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful!
You are treasured
You are sacred
You are His

What a great message in that song. I just heard one by Tenth Ave North called "You Are More". You should look up those lyrics, because the message in that song is really powerful, too.

What beautiful words. I am always trying to convey to our adopted (and bio ones) :-), children how much God loves them...and their worth to Him. So hard for them to grasp sometimes...but these songs says everything. I will read these words to them next time we have this kind of conversation.

Thanks for sharing.
