Meag, thank you for being open about your past struggle! So many girls (and women) have or are struggling with food disorders. Blessings to you and your blog as you speak of His healing!

I totally agree. We want to take care of our bodies — we only have one — but there’s a line we can cross into obsession. It’s honestly a battle I have to consciously fight. Thanks, Deanna.

But, Jesus has healed me (hallelujah!). My blog is based on the verse above. =]

“When we believe what He says and trust how He moves, a beauty arises in us that time cannot wrinkle or sag.” LOVE that. great post. <3

I still try to take care of myself, but I don’t go over the top like I used to. As cliche as it is, true beauty is on the inside and it will show on the outside of those who cultivate it. Just like you said, “When we believe what He says and trust how He moves, a beauty arises in us that time cannot wrinkle or sag.” Amen!

I loved this quote: “we as everyday people become consumed with outward appearance while our inner woman starves.” Thanks for the reminder!
