A simple compliment can make my day.
The fact that someone took the some to say,
“You look pretty,” to make me smile,
Even just for a little while
To be called…
Beautiful,
Gorgeous,
Precious,
Cute,
By someone near,
That’s something I’ll always be thankful to hear.
But the best compliment of all
Are not the words of what someone saw,
But instead what they felt by me.
Not what they see,
But of all I could be,
All that I am.
A compliment of my inner personality…
Careless,
Happy,
Giving,
A blessing—
That’s my purpose of living.
Not for as I appear,
But for the words I speak.
What people hear,
Because what matters is not what’s on the outside—
No, none of that can serve as a guide.
What matters is that as I speak,
The Word of God is what people want to seek.
The best words I can hear
Are that people recognize
My attempt at being
Kind,
Happy,
Joyful,
Loving,
A soul that’s free.
Because of the blessings God has given me,
For Him,
I am being the best I can be.
