True Wealth
by Deb Nelson (Deb's bio)

Send this page to a friend

To learn that there is more to me
Than the body in the mirror I see.
To love the person I am inside,
The one I always seem to hide.

My body outside will not change,
Until my thoughts are rearranged.
To love the me that God has made,
And not let that love be swayed.

I’m often swayed by what I weigh,
What I do, and what I say.
Realizing that I’m God’s masterpiece,
Allows self condemnation to cease.

He’s the potter and I’m the clay
He’s made me what I am today.
Everyone is beautiful in His eyes,
To think different is believing lies.

Junk is not what God makes
A new perspective is what it takes.
To see the beauty in myself,
Is what will bring true wealth.

About Deb Nelson: Deb Nelson is a single 41 year old that lives in Minneapolis, MN. She has been writing poetry since the age of 14. Since getting saved 6 years ago, she has learned to be still and know that He is God. In that stillness, the Holy Spirit inspires poetry for her to write, she feels as though this is her ministry. Often times, these poems are like her journal, other times they are showing her gift of encouragement. Please let these words speak to you and bless you. E-mail Deb
