negrita chinita:) God created me beautiful...& i am worth more than rubies(p31). I was promised by God to do things with my life. I see all that I can be & even though people may not see it yet, I am not living for them. God told me to stay with Him & He would take care of me. I can no longer see myself as a young girl, but a lady who is mature, wise, and works hard for herself and the desires of her heart. I was made to help others and have a heart of compassion, love, obedience, determination, and courage. Even though I may not want to do the things asked of me, I know that in the end..I will feel accomplished. I know that good things do not come easy. Before I expect a man to fight for me, I need to fight for myself. Always hold my head up high and walk in confidence. I will be humble in my words but confident in my actions. & through everything, I will always know that God is my safe place.
