I am beautiful! Three simple words, yet for many women they are the most difficult words to say. Why? Why do we find it so hard to look in the mirror and see beauty staring back at us? Lisa Shaw addresses my question (and I'm sure many other women) in her book You Are Beautiful in God's Eyes. Lisa's book is an excellent, easy to understand, touching read. It seems almost as if you're sitting across the table from your best girlfriend having a cup of tea and a little heart to heart conversation. First and foremost she invites us to see what God says about us. Next, she takes us into different reasons why we may see ourselves as less than beautiful. Several times as I read I found myself nodding my head because I identified with what I was reading. I found this book to be one that reaches out to encourage and uplift women. I found myself following some of Lisa's closing words at the end. She encourages her readers: "Now, go look in the mirror and smile the biggest smile you can and say I am beautiful in God's eyes. I am filled with His deeper inner beauty! My life and my heart are His." I enjoyed reading this book and would not hesitate to read other books by this author.

Sis. Lisa, I knew when I ordered this it would go deep within. I decided to write a review here although I actually order the book. I marked it up and cried. I think that what you wrote will help many women to know just how God has made them to be. So many men in the world have made women feel small or unnecessary and some women do the same to each other. We are all important to God. I miss you in Virginia. I'm praying for you. I will keep my remarks anonymous. God has used you, once again, to penetrate my heart and cause me to think about how I am treating myself. Thank you for that. I pray that God would cause this book to reach the hands of many. God bless you.

Overview
Have you lived with negative thoughts, fear, guilt or low self-worth? Do you feel robbed of your value as a woman; your peace of mind and inner beauty? Or perhaps you just need some encouragement as a woman.This book is to help women to realize the truth, that we must define ourselves by the Word of God and not by the world, past or present circumstances or negative thoughts. Healing begins when we surrender to the truth that we are indeed beautiful in God's eyes.
