A Beauty That’s Impossible to Hide

There’s a beauty that’s impossible to hide…

It’s one that’s growing in you down inside.

 

No matter how you try to alter or display it…

There is no disguise that can betray it.

 

There’s a beauty that’s impossible to hide…

It can’t be taken; it can’t be belied.

 

For this kind of beauty; God has given to you.

Let is shine, let others see it, in all that you do.

A beauty that’s impossible to hide…With all of the emphasis on external beauty these days, it’s hard to know what’s in fashion. The trends constantly change; what we deem to be beautiful one moment, is far from that the next.  There is a beauty that never changes, though, one that only evolves…it’s a beauty that’s impossible to hide.

“For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.” Psalm 139:13

We are all born with an inherent beauty, one that God has planted deep down inside each one of us.  That beauty may not be evident immediately, but unlike the ever-changing trends of the world, like God, it is constant and always there. When we take the time to dig beneath the shallow surface of our physical beauty that we see only on the outside, we’ll recognize the roots of our real beauty…and that’s a beauty that’s impossible to hide!

Peace and love,

”It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important.” 

― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

No ordinary rose…we all have something uniquely our own to offer to the world…

No Ordinary Rose

 

No ordinary rose, that’s true of us all,

No matter where we come from,

With roots planted deeply, we can stand tall.

 

No ordinary rose, as we develop and grow,

What we learn from life’s lessons,

Causes our inner beauty to glow.

 

No ordinary rose, I say of you and me,

We’ve got so much to offer…

Now it’s time for the world to see.

I’ve long enjoyed the timeless wisdom found in Antoine de Saint-Exupery’s The Little Prince.  The Little Prince’s interaction with his rose has always touched my heart.  I think it’s admirable how well the boy takes such special care of his delicate rose, protecting her from the elements, and making certain she has all she needs to grow.  In his eyes, his rose is the most beautiful rose in all the world.  She is one-of-a-kind and that’s what makes her so special.  When he later finds out that his rose appears to be the same as all the others, he is disappointed, because he comes to the conclusion that she is just an ordinary rose.

On the contrary, there really is no ordinary rose…and the same is true of you and me.  As with the Little Prince’s rose, although we may not appear to be remarkable on the outside, we all have something uniquely our own to offer to the world.  When we take the time to nurture those attributes that make us unique, there is nothing more beautiful than when we are in full bloom.

I challenge you to take the time to dig deep in your heart and find out what seeds have been planted, but need to be watered and cared for.  As time goes by, I’m sure you’ll be amazed at the beauty that begins to grow. Then, I encourage you share it and let the world enjoy it too!

Peace and love,

Felecia
