Four quotes, all from Captivating by John and Stasi Eldridge:
"We know that we are not all that we long to be, all that God longs for us to be, but instead of coming up for grace-filled air and asking God what he thinks of us, shame keeps us pinned down and believing that we deserve to suffocate."
". . . the more his we become, the more ourselves we become; more our true selves."
"A woman in her glory, a woman of beauty, is a woman who is not striving to become beautiful or worthy or enough. She knows in her quiet center where God dwells that he finds her beautiful, has deemed her worthy, and in him, she is enough. In fact, the only thing getting in the way of our being fully captivating and enjoyed is our striving."
"Beauty flows from a heart that is alive."
