Beautiful - YOU are beautiful.


CELINE DION - BEAUTY & THE BEAST
I’ve been writing a Bible Study and in the introduction it speaks about the three basic wants and needs of a woman. These points were gleaned from the book Captivated.


1. She wants to be romanced. She wants to know that a man will find her, no matter how long it takes. She wants to be wanted and fought for. She wants to be sought after and desired. She wants to be pursued by someone who exhibits that she is their priority. She wants to be seen, wanted and pursued. If danger surrounds her, she wants to know that someone will rescue her and fight for her.

2. She wants to play an irreplaceable role in a great adventure. In other words she wants and longs to be part of something courageous, adventurous, important and good.

3. She wants her beauty to be unveiled.
"I want to be beautiful and make you stand in awe, look inside my heart and be amazed. I want to hear you say who I am is quite enough."
I just want to be worthy of love and beautiful.
Bethany Dillon (Beautiful)


I’m thankful that God can and has fulfilled these aspects in my life.


The three basic needs of a man are:

1. Every man wants a battle to fight. Men are made for battle. A woman’s core desire is to long for a man who will fight for her. A man desires to fight for her.

2. They long for adventure. This is a deeply spiritual longing which put’s them to the test. They find adventure in attempting the impossible. With God all things are possible.

3. They long for a beauty to rescue. They need someone to fight for. This is why men have gone to war with a photo of their loved one in their wallet. They long to offer their strength to the woman who needs and longs for them.

Man’s pursuit of a woman brings out the beauty of a woman.


C. L. Lewis wrote, “Even to see her walk across the room is a liberal education.”


“Suddenly, I turned around and she was standing there with silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair. She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns. ‘Come in,’ she said. ‘I’ll give you shelter from the storm."' Bob Dylan


These are the words to a song I try to sing to the Lord every day. It reminds me that He loves me and cares for me, even when I feel very alone:


Stay, I love to feel your presence in this place
To hear the sounds of heaven here on earth
I want to be where you are.
Stay, let your glory fill this place
To see the lights of heaven here on earth
I want to be where you are. I believe you are God today.
Yes, I believe, never change your ways.

You are drawing me with your love,
You are drawing and I can’t get enough, I can’t get enough.
Stay, I love to feel your presence in this place
To hear the sounds of heaven here on earth
I want to be where you are.
Stay, let your glory fill this place
To see the lights of heaven here on earth
I want to be where you are. I believe you are God today.
Yes, I believe, never change your ways.

You and your holiness, the beauty of you. I love to feel your presence in this place
To hear the sounds of heaven here on earth
I want to be where you are.
Stay, let your glory fill this place
To see the lights of heaven here on earth
I want to be where you are. I believe you are God today.
Yes, I believe, never change your ways.

You and your holiness, the beauty of your ways
Your hand of justice, the glory of your name
You are drawing me with your love
You are drawing me with your love and I can’t get enough.
I can’t get enough.
Stay, let your glory fill this place
To see the lights of heaven here on earth
I want to be where you are. I believe you are God today.
Yes, I believe, never change your ways.
