god is good, and i am beautiful

hey guys-the last few days have been very difficult as you all know. (well, at least you know if you read my last blog.) this morning i fell, and i think i sprained something. anyway, so i was feeling bad because my foot hurts and i have been fighting a horrible headache all day. untill i found a post from someone on dailystrength. the post was simply a link to www.operationbeautiful.com under the title "my new hobby".i went there, and started crying tears of joy. what i found was something that could have only been orchestrated by god. this young woman named caitlin decided that she wanted to make other ladies feel beautiful. so she started anonymously leaving notes for other women to find in public places. what started as one woman's mission to remnd girls of their inner worth has apparently exploded into an "operation beautiful" movement.i sent the following e-mail to caitlin:dear caitlin,my name is fallon. i am 21. i have cerebral palsy and i struggle daily with an undiagnosed eating disorder. (i believe it is binge eating disorder, but i'm not sure.) someone in the eating disorders support group @ www.dailystrength.org posted your website under the title "my new hobby". i clicked, and then i cried. i wanted to say thank you because i have been letting my ED get the best of me lately. last night, i tried to make myself throw up for the first time. thank god it didn't work. i binge ate afterward. your website reminds me that jesus loves me and thinks i am beautiful. thank you for inspiring me to become involved. i think i'll start putting notes up. what an incredible way to spread god's love in the world. i frequently blog to close friends about my struggles with my illness. i think operation beautiful will be my next blog. i want to tell everyone i know. thank you SO MUCH! may god richly bless you and your ministry of making women aware of their real beauty.the following is a poem i wrote last year called "princess"I am a princessA beautiful, prized jewel in the Eyes of my Father-The KingMy Father loves without limitWithout measurementWithout doubtHe will love meUntill the end of time and back againThroughout everything I have ever doneOr ever will doHe loves me not because I have earned itBut simply because I am HisI am a princessA precious little ladyWho is meant for greatnessI can come to my FatherAnytime of day or nightNo matter the thoughtsrWeighing on my mindI am a princessWho has been given giftsMeant just for meNo one else in the world has the exact gifts I doMy Father loves me that muchI am that preciousI am a princessI am part of the largest kingdom the world has ever seenMy Father told me and my brothers and sistersTo tell you about HimHis name is JesusI am a princessA beautiful, prized jewel in the eyes of my Father-The KingAnd you can be His princess tooFallon Mariei think it will be my first operation beautiful note. thank you and god bless.love,fallonso what do you say girls? who wants to join me? let's show god's love to the world! let's remind girls and women everywhere that true beauty lies within!here's some examples and stories of the power of "operation beautiful". http://operationbeautiful.com/about-2/i'd love to blog more, but i have to get documents together for my medicaid appointment tomorrow. love you people!-fallon
