A few years later, I have a photo of me standing by a train station in Germany. I can remember feeling very insecure there...not exactly sure of myself, yet in the photo, I appear to be a confident hippie-chick:

One thing's for sure, the images we present are not always reflective of the way we feel inside. That's why I'm happy to read this verse:
"...the Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward, but the Lord looks at the heart." 1 Samuel 16:7
It's good to know that the Lord sees my heart...and understands my needs before I ask. I don't have to present a perfect facade for Him to accept me just the way I am: mischievous girl or hippie-chick, He knows me inside out!

LOVE that verse (and those pictures). And what an incredible application. I also went to Germany when I was a teen (about 14) - with my grandmother. You look like you were a bit older :)
Thank you for sharing those pictures of you when you were young. So very cute, Dee. It is easy to look and feel one way and not really look or feel that way on the inside.
Praying for you as you deal with your blood/sugar levels. So sorry.
Great pics, Dee. WOuld have been fun to sit and re-cap memories like that with a bunch of us. Wish we could all get to know each other a tiny bit better. Ok... a BIG bit better. : P
