deeper than beauty



A day in the life of a girl, who on the surface looks like she’s got it all together.
People assume her life is great, after all they find her beautiful.
That’s the thing about looking at only the surface of things, beauty is deceiving.
One looks at a beautiful mountain and stands in awe of its greatness
Because on the surface it is captivating.
But if you were to visit that mountain, spend some time on that mountain
You see the huge fault that lays at its foundation.
From the surface, yes this mountain is beautiful.
It is strong and full of life
But underneath its foundation waits for the earth to shift,
moving the plates and creating destruction.
You see while this mountain is beautiful, it is broken.
Just as that mountain, is the girl.
When you see a beautiful girl, don’t assume she that has it all together

Because you never know the brokenness that her beauty hides.

  1. This is so beautiful my friend....remember that God can turn our ashes into beauty. He can use anything that might be deemed broken to bring great healing. Keep leaning on Him, pouring your heart out to Him and let Him do the work. Love you dearly!
