"You" are beautiful!
Internship week8
This week’s revelation from God
Like last week, God encouraged me and met me through the worship time on the community meeting. As we were praising God all together as the body of Christ, and interceding to God, this one powerful song strokes my spirit strongly. It’s a well-known song, “Beautiful” by Phil Wickham. I believe that the author of this song had this revelation already, yet this is so powerful so that I want to share still.
Whether we are men or women, we are searching for the beauty in our lives. Men want to be more handsome and women want to be prettier. But, do we actually have the standard of handsome and pretty? No. We do not have one. But somehow people think they can know or distinguish the beauty of people especially external ones. People are saying that as times change, the standard of the beauty changes too. Why? because this standard of the beauty is created by human’s eyes. It could be not a big problem, but when this standard became only way to see and judge the people in reality, it became the big problem.
People judge each other’s outsides, hurt other’s heart, blame their parents and take a gloomy view of life, and these situations repeats and increases in the society. It causes and increases more bad problems in society like mental ill, addictions or suicide. It is seriously sad thing to see when people cannot love themselves, but rather hate about themselves due to this standards of the world.
When I sang this song “Beautiful”, God shows the right standard, real meaning of the beauty.
The words of song, verse by verse, it really made us to picture the words. Then it happened to me again in this time, and he let me know things about what is beautiful.
I see Your face in every sunrise
The colors of the morning are inside Your eyes
The world awakens in the light of the day
I look up to the sky and say
You’re beautiful
I see Your power in the moonlit night
Where planets are in motion and galaxies are bright
We are amazed in the light of the stars
It’s all proclaiming who You are
You’re beautiful, You're beautiful
When we see this beautiful creation, we are absolutely speechless.
We cannot doubt about the beauty. I was like that and I proclaimed his beauty. Then, he told me that I am beautiful. Did anyone control the sun and stars to be like that pictures? No, but ever since God created, it does show the beautiful sights. God made it and it just shows beauty itself. He said everything with its original is all beautiful so that you and all your friends on the earth are all beautiful as they are because I created them. We made our own beauty, but we definitely lost the real beauty in our world. Our originality of things are corrupted and ruined by lying and sins - the way we see and the way we think. We need to see real beauty from ourselves and others as we are.
In the 3rd verse, I was asking deeply. What can be the things that I do not know correctly about the beauty?
I see you there hanging on a tree
You bled and then you died and then you rose again for me
Now you are sitting on Your heavenly throne
Soon we will be coming home
You’re beautiful, you're beautiful
We could see Jesus death on the cross and resurrection as the most beautiful thing as we accept him as our savior. It may not look like beautiful picture to some people because the death on the cross isn’t pleasant picture. But when we see and understand Jesus’ life fully, then it is surely beautiful picture, and his life is precious and beautiful. Innocent man, who is also God, Jesus Christ came to the earth and lived among his people, and eventually died for all people’s sin and rose to heaven where he was.
Then, God reminded me again that you are beautiful, and said that your life is just beautiful as it is. Your struggles, pain, sorrows, passion, effort and courage, everything that are parts of your life is just beautiful as the life of Jesus because you are my creation and my child. Though our lives cannot be like Jesus’ perfectly, but He just sees all as same beautiful lives. And as I look at my life, it is beautiful because I am going to be in the heaven with Jesus someday after my life. God surely restored our lives as beautiful thing through Jesus so that whatever I do now as long as I follow Him and His principles I will be kept as forever beautiful one. It made the picture of 4th verse as the most beautiful day. And we all going to see His face. How beautiful!
4th verse:
When we arrive at eternity’s shore
Where death is just a memory and tears are no more
We’ll enter in as the wedding bells ring
Your bride will come together and we’ll sing
You’re beautiful, You're beautiful, You're beautiful
I see Your face, You're beautiful, You're beautiful, You're beautiful
I see Your face, You're beautiful, You're beautiful, You're beautiful
I see Your face, I see Your face
I see Your face, You’re beautiful, You’re beautiful, You’re beautiful
Thank you, God.
I am just as beautiful as who I am, what I do in life as long as it’s for you.
Keep your original! & Be who you are in God! Because you are already beautiful!!
