Beautiful

I had a dream last night, just a short one and I can't remember much about it, but I do remember that I was wearing this dress: it was one of those dresses that made me feel sooo good!  It fit perfectly and it was really comfortable and, best of all, Sami thought I looked beautiful in it!  He actually got up, went out, and came back with more of the same dress so that I'd always have one to wear.  Elizabeth was sitting with me in the dream and she even felt happier with me because the dress was making me happier.

Josiah woke up EARLY this morning, and while I was up feeding him, I remembered that dream I'd just had.  I knew it was something the Lord was showing me and that it wasn't just about a dress.  The dress in the dream made me feel happy, peaceful, comfortable, confident, beautiful!  I want to feel like that all the time!!  Lord, I want to wear your attributes!  I want to be beautiful because you're alive in me.  I want your love and joy and peace and patience and kindness to overwhelm everything about me!  I don't want to be seen, I want you to be seen, and then I will be seen as beautiful and I will feel like I did in that dress.
