I want to pour out my heart about body image because I feel this is a good place to do it because the most of us struggle with it and we all seem to be Christians 'cause we love Mandisa's music :). I'm getting really confused about what's "ideal beauty" because meanwhile there are thin and fit girls in music videos and the general of magazines I get dumped by a man for not being curvy enough! My shape is rectangle & I consider myself quite slim but great abs are missing. How should I see myself?
then she goes and explain how much the things that help heal or make things better doesnt matter it can not fix true beauty .. True beauty is what is inside of you
mandisa has a powerful message behind this i actually listened to this song .. and it has made me fall in love deeper with this song .......it explains what true beauty is from beginnning to end ... the first part speaks about how women come in different sizes but that isn't what matters its what God made that matters the next part speaks about how young woman always searching for a boy and sex but that dont matter the only thing that matters
looooooooove this perfect time for me to find it and friend hooked me too it i really like mandisa i just recently started listening to her again i loved her on idol and i actually forgot about her and the gift GOD has blessed her with her music and testimony really speak to me as i start my journey to self and god!
looooooooove this perfect time for me to find it and friend hooked me too it i really like mandisa i just recently started listening to her again i loved her on idol and i actually forgot about her and the gift GOD has blessed her with her music and testimony really speak to me as i start my journey to self and god
according to the world i am unwanted, lonely, unloved, useless and ... unbeautiful but according to god im wanted, accompanied, loved, sacred and ... Beautiful
to be beautiful is to have a essence which has enough love to stop a baby from crying, to make someone feel better, to give enough love to others that can last a life time. This essence is becoming extinct in humans
thumbs up this message if your one of the few that cares more about someones inner beauty than there outer beauty.
Who ever dislikes this has something go on with them this song is amzing and evryone is beutiful in this world u dont have to show it u know that u are so who ever calls you ugly or anything u know u r not they just have something with them u know u have true beauty
My Youth Pastor's wife was trying to make me feel better, because my boyfriend broke up with me. She sent me this and I cheered up instantly! I just love this song!
As a brother in the Lord I want all my sisters to know that God has made you wonderfully and fearfully made!!! As long as you believe that your beautifull inside then you will believe your beautifull on the outside. Every woman in the univierse is beautifull because God created them that way. God loves you for who you are not for anything else. God loves YOU!!! So do I!!!!!!!!
@virtuouswoman123 Thankou!! Why I think this way because first Jesus Christ second i do not date!!! I am not saying that you should not date but to be real to you dating is a game if it was not then there would not be so many dating sights!!!! I do not need to search for the right one! God has one for me and is preparing one for me!!!! If you will wait for God's timing and season then you will be in his perfect wil! She may not be what I want but God wants for me!
@ppcjjdm What he wants I want!!! WE all may have a list of the person we want or dream of but God will give the one we need!!! I love you all my sisters!!! Keep your selves pure not only by deed but thought!! Also if you are dating or want to date I greatly encourage you not to kiss or hold hands!! Let the kiss and hold of hadns be something presiouse and kept for the right time when the preacher says NOW, YOU MAY KISS YOUR BRIDE!!!
WHAT!! Man you preaching! That is exactly what I believe when it comes to relationships. I am so glad that God is opening up the eyes of His young people so that they may see the game behind dating. Like my pastor says " .. it will always leave you hurt broken and all messed up.." if you do not do it God's way!
p.s. At first she may not be what you want according to fleshy criteria, but when you get to know the inside of her... boy you will surely fall in love with her. GOD is Good!
@virtuouswoman123 I do not want to preach to you but to open the eyes of others to show them that dating is the worlds way not God's way! I want to be your b0y-friend not your boy friend who i just kiss and hold hands and use and abuse!!! Why can't we have self controll and wait until marrieage for all that?! Why do you believe like I do?! Your the first one that I have met who believes like I do!!!!!! The first rule to any relationship is that GOD must be the center!
I believe what you do because I believe the truth. And it is indeed the truth. and im surprised that im the first one you've met like this. There are many people that i know and even those i dont know that choose to wait on God while faithfully serving Him. And God must be our everything because the emptiness we don't allow Him to fill, we will look for in someone else and end up dissapionted.
@virtuouswoman123 Well you see I am very picky. I mean not just not the sencual stuff i mean not even kissing a girl or holding her hand or even trying to date her!!! I am just a wierdy!! Your not the first I have met two others but you have spken so boldy about it without no exsuces either!!! A woman who is so bold about god , who will not compimise even a little, and puts her believes in Jesus by action without worrying about being pointed at as strange, rare, weird, or just reject!
@virtuouswoman123 I have met very few! Remember those that follow the narrow path are few and few who find it but the broadway wich leads to destruction many find it. You are the part of the few who will not just date because they love God but do not desire the kiss, touch, and holding the hand!!! WOW! There are very few virtuouse women!!!!! Be honest with me there are few!! Not by word but by lifestyle. By the way they dress, talk, and walk!

@virtuouswoman123 If it is not then it will fail!!!! Even God said IF ANY MAN LOVES HIS MOTHER, FATHER, WIFE , BROTHER OR SISTER ABOVE ME THEN HER CAN NOT ENTER THE KINGDOME OF GOD!!! May God be our first love!!! I am not dating anybody!!! It is not God's timming and season yet. Thankyou for your encouragement!!! We are like the 12 desciples! WE may be few but we can turn this world upside down for God's kingdome!!!!!!!!
MANDISA IS AMAZING !! Just left her concert about and hour ago ... This makes the 3rd time I've seen her ! First 2 were w/the "Women of Faith" conferences. I love her, love her performance and love to watch her praise GOD ! Love to be surrounded by other christians who are on fire and want to act like fools for JESUS !! Thank you GOD for the freedom we have to be able to serve you in this awesome country ! HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY AMERICA !!
Letting the whole worl see my "true beauty" Bless the Lord. I'm honestly beautiful on the outside but I ameven more beautiful o the inside because God lives in me!
ok, so a gentle quiet spirit is precious in the eyes of God, but man looks at the appearnace, God looks at the heart (proverbs). so to live in this world we still need to dress presentably. cos only God looks at the heart. christians also look at the outward appearance. don't kid ourselves.
@sizzlinfr you don't hear about her probably cause she is a christian singer now. christian singers don't get near as much publicity as others. not that they want it anyways
me and my BFFL are going to sing this song at are camp that we go to every year.the first time sang the next year a girl cam up to me and said are you going to sing agen? and i said i no and she said please sing i love your voice! i couldn't beleave it!!!!!!
I want to pour out my heart about body image because I feel this is a good place to do it because the most of us struggle with it and we all seem to be Christians 'cause we love Mandisa's music :).

Nothing wrong with dressing presentable but don't focus so much on the outer appearance to where you lose focus of what really matters-who you are.
Just because people are shallow doesn't mean we have to give in and conform to this world. Be yourself.
