Many times we think of a vessel as a container to hold something. To have a purpose for something. I have been doing a Bible study called "Hello, Beauty Full." It is based off of a book by Elisa Morgan. It is so so good. The whole study is on beauty & finding your worth in Christ and not in this world. I highly recommend it & will drop a link at the end of this blog for the video study I am doing.
Anyways, get back on track Hannah. Vessels. When we use the word vessel to describe our physical body or as a temple like in (1 Corinthians 6:19-20), it changes the way you think about your body. Or it should.
In John 1:14 God puts Himself in a vessel. It says, "And the Word became flesh and dwelled among us, & we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace & truth."
Glorify God with your body. At the end of the day He gets all the credit & glory. God intricately & beautifully made you. So, when you start believing the lies of the devil of "you're not pretty enough, smart enough, or worth it." Just remember, see your body the way God sees it. Beautiful, because He sees it as a container perfectly designed to hold his essence. He wants us to embrace what He embraced. When His Word became flesh & His dwelling became among us.
Remember you are BEAUTIFUL, you are LOVED, & you are VALUED by your Heavenly Father.
"You take our failure
You take our weakness
You set Your treasure
In jars of clay
So take this heart, Lord
I'll be Your Vessel
The world to see
Your life in me, oh"
