  • Dramatic – the Exotic Beauty

    Dramatic – the Exotic Beauty

    Some women are fast-paced, hardworking and unafraid to take risks. Those who are Dramatic in style have a daring nature that is seemingly uninhibited by the influences around her. Her long, straight features and extreme height are indication of her character. The Dramatic woman (or man, or child…) is focused and passionate about all she…

  • The Beauty of the Manger

    The Beauty of the Manger

    My fourth child was due to arrive just before Christmas. We were building a home at the time and it was not ready for occupancy. I remember feeling anxious about bringing a newborn home to our temporary living situation–a large, open room over my brother-in-law’s garage. With two young boys and another young family within…

  • Validation, Everyone Needs It

    When is the last time someone said something encouraging to you as a person? You are very good at that. You are so strong! You are beautiful. I hope it was this morning that someone validated you as a person, but I know that in reality it may have been a long time since you…

  • What are your holdfasts?

    I was feeling a bit overwhelmed with my to do list, when a dear friend of mine presented this very powerful question. It put life back into proper perspective for me and my hope is that it will for you as well. If you’re plate is full and you are finding it hard to be…

  • Invisible Beauty

    My boys were less than two weeks old when they each got their first haircuts. Each of my newborn girls had pretty hair ornaments before leaving the hospital. Having “hairy babies” was something I’d always hoped for when I dreamed of being a mom. If you ask me why, I’d tell you that it was…

    Pure beauty is healing; that is why we send flowers to the grieving heart. It is powerful. It is meant to inspire others to become better, stronger and more relaxed and confident; that is why we vacation in beautiful resorts. Your beauty should bring peace, joy and energy to others. That is what Eve’s beauty…

  • Don’t Hate Her ‘Cuz She’s Beautiful

    It’s not easy being different. Unusual beauty creates Confidence Conflicts for the gorgeous as much as it does for the less-lovely. Sometimes the reason people stare is not because of your imperfections, but because they think you are perfect—or close to it, beautiful women get gawked at too, and not just by lustful men. They…

  • Let Them Stare!

    And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28 I was pregnant with Rebecca when the doctors were trying to count her fingers and thought maybe she didn’t have them all because she held them so tight and…

  • When Others Stare

    One of my favorite topics to speak to women about is the Image Issues and Confidence Conflicts that come with exceptional beauty and unusual beauty. No one really wants to look like the average girl, yet we can become so uncomfortable when our image is outstanding-be that good or bad- it is simply an “issue”…
