Who You Are

Is Not Defined by How Others See You

Who you

Are is not

Defined

By how

Others see

You

Your value

Is found

Within you

And the gifts

God has given you.

Do not

Let others

Put a price

On your value

Or invalidate

The pain you

Have been through.

Life is a beautiful

Gift to be embraced

But life can also

Be full of pain

But look around

And you can see

Gods grace.

Who you are

Is not written

In the definition

Of others

Remember that

When you feel

The worlds eyes on

You

But you can

See your immeasurable

Worth

In God’s

Great grace.
