I’m a long shot from doing anything close to a Maya Angelou piece
I’m just trying to speak freely and express what’s within
The thoughts, insights, desires and teachings
Share to women, not because I’m a feminist
But speak to those willing to listen to a sister who’s been through it
SELF esteem issues, time to throw them out the window
Breathe some confidence all up in your soul, no more tears on that pillow
Look around me, and all I see are women so filled with less joy than sorrows
Carrying around the burdens of their loved ones and their own
Dealing with life’s curve balls the wrong way
Never seeing the beauty her whole frame portrays
God didn’t take time to create a mere Frankenstein
He made you in His image; you’re WORTH more than dime
Worth more than rubies and precious stones
Yet you struggle with feeling WHOLE!
You hate the mirrors reflection, it depicts the physical
Your beauty lies inside, it’s deep and spiritual
I don’t mean LOVE the profound and HATE the visible-NO!
Your curves, your smile, that birthmark on your lip is where it should be
I repeat, made in His image, my God aint UGLY
You betta love your thighs, hips, all up to your eyes
More than anything, work on your inside
Stick to scripture, not those media lies
Learn from real women, Ruth& Esther, Mary is to be admired
A virgin in the physical, yet her ways were all so purified
Esther showed she could be both beautiful and wise
Her adequacy was found in God-second Corinthians three: five
Ruth made it to Jesus’ bloodline
Only Through her love and loyalty, talk about the ultimate price
Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
(I guess Proverbs 31:31 applies)
Beyonce and Oprah Winfrey are idols, lets not get caught up in their Ungodly virtues, don’t make them your role models!
66 books are more than enough for you to establish your identity in Christ, the only one you should pursue!
He loves you, love yourself!
Let Him work and prepare you for the godly spouse you deserve
True love awaits -My girl Lovelynda defined it as Beauty and the priest, away with the beast!
I love the sound of it!
Let’s stop with in vain crushes, useless flirting and the constant reawakening of love
Going against what our Father once told us three times, not even once
In the songs of Solomon 2:7, 8:4 and 3:5!
Urging and charging us, our love shouldn’t be reawakened till its time
So no more finding of SELF worth in Men, magazines and TV screens
No more SELFish acts of finding love on our own, when we belong to the King
No more false SELF perceptions and SELF righteousness
We need more SELF control and SELF discipline
Out with the Low SELF esteem, DENY yourSELF and follow Him like LUKE 9: twenty three
Get some GOD ESTEEM!
"Out with the low self esteem.. Get some God esteem!!"
