BAMKAPOWXO --> Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. +Philippians 4:8

“To possess true beauty, we must be willing to suffer. I don’t like that. Just writing it down makes my heart shrink back. Yet, if Christ himself was perfect through his sufferings, why should I believe God would not do the same with me? Women who are stunningly beautiful are women who have had their hearts enlarged by suffering. By saying, “Yes,” when the world says, “No.” By paying the high price of loving truly and honestly without demanding that they be loved in return. And by refusing to numb their pain in the myriad of ways available. They have to come to know that when everyone and everything has left them, God is there.”

“In the depths of my soul, I longed to be a part of something large and good; something that required all of me; something dangerous and worth dying for.”

“She needs God more than she needs you, just as you need God more than you need her.”
