Beautiful for Me

A few days ago, a great friend of mine introduced me to a song called "Beautiful for Me" by Nicole Nordeman. Every girl has a time in her life when she struggles with thinking is she beautiful enough? There are so many times when a girl will compare herself to every other girl around her and think, if only I was that pretty, if only I had that body type, if only I had that kind of hair. What so many girls don't realize is that God created every single one of us in His PERFECT image, He knitted us together in our mother's womb, and He calls us BEAUTIFUL! How awesome and comforting is that? My God calls ME beautiful! I am His princess! :)

The lyrics to this song are absolutely amazing, and every single girl should wake up KNOWING that her Heavenly Father looks down, smiles, and says "Good morning, Beautiful!"

BEAUTIFUL FOR ME Lyrics
Nichole Nordeman

Every girl young and old has to face her own reflection
Twirl around, stare it down
What’s the mirror gonna say
With some luck, you’ll measure up
But you might not hold a candle to the rest
“Is that your best?” says the mirror to the mess

But there’s a whisper in the noise
Can you hear a little voice
and he says


Has anybody told you you’re beautiful?
You might agree if you could see what I see
Oh
‘Cuz everything about you is incredible
You should have seen me smile the day that I made you beautiful for me

If it’s true beauty lies in the eye of the beholder
What my life and what’s inside to give him something to behold
I want a heart that’s captivating
I wanna hear my Father say


Has anybody told you you’re beautiful?
You might agree if you could see what I see
Oh
‘Cuz everything about you is incredible
You should have seen me smile the day that I made you beautiful for me

Close your eyes
Look inside
Let me see the you that you’ve been trying to hide
Long ago, I made you so very beautiful
So I ought to know you’re beautiful


Has anybody told you you’re beautiful?
You might agree if you could see what I see
Yeah
‘Cuz everything about you is incredible
You should have seen me smile the day that I made you beautiful
You’re so beautiful
Beautiful for me
So beautiful for me
Has anybody told you?

    Megan,
    I am so glad that you like the song. I encourage you to listen to it everyday, and to always remember the absolute truth of the lyrics. So many of us struggle with not feeling beautiful, I promise you are not alone! Just think about it this way, God MADE you with His own hands, and when we ourselves make something we want it to be perfect and beautiful... that's exactly what God did for us He made us perfect and beautiful in His image! :)

    Hugs&Love,
    Rachel
