Not Giving Into the Fear Cancer Brings

I Am Beautiful

I am beautiful with all my flaws,

because I lay my head upon mercy and grace.

A part of me taken away but deep faith to fill its place.

I am beautiful with all the pain you brought,

because my hope takes root and grows. How I found this endless

strength, only God really knows.

I am beautiful with the image that I see

because love fills my heart like a free-flowing spring.

I am strong and courageous

because there is so much more to me.

I am beautiful beyond compare

as joy fills my heart again.

I do not fear what you can do

because I have a greater friend.

I am beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
