New way of looking at things...

It's amazing how being in Gods word, and really taking it to heart can change the way you view people, and the way you view yourself.

Take these verses and apply them to everyday situations and I assure you; you will see things differently.


For the times you just don't feel very pretty, or attractive:

"Your beauty should not consist of outward things like elaborate hairstyles and wearing of gold ornaments or fine clothes; instead it should consist of the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very valuable in God's eyes." 1 Peter 3: 3-4

"The King is ENTHRALLED with your beauty; honor him, for he is your Lord." Psalm 45:11


When someone wrongs you, and all you can think of is how much you want to get back at that person:

"Set a guard over my mouth, O Lord; keep watch over the door of my lips. Let not my heart be drawn to what is evil, to take part in wicked deeds with men who are evildoers; let me not eat of their delicacies." Psalm 142:3-4

"Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." Ephesians 4:32

"Love does no harm to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law" Romans 13:10.

"Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another ABOVE YOURSELVES." Romans 12:9


When you feel abandoned, wronged, scared, lost, or just alone:

"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." Psalm 46:1

"As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the Lord is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him. For who is God beside the Lord? And who is the Rock except our God? It is God who arms me with strength and makes my way perfect." Psalm 18:30-32


Lastly, when you just want to be encouraged in your walk with Christ:

"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you aer the birds! Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?" Luke 12:22-26

Therefore, I urge you brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God-- This is your spiritual act of worship. DO NOT conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed but the renewing of your mind." Romans 12:1-2

"Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dealy loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, gentleness, and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity."Colossians 3:12-14

"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes."Ephesians 6:10-11

"Be joyful always, pray continually and give thanks in all curcumstances for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.1 Thessalonians 5:15-18




"You did not choose me, but I chose you."John 15:16
