You're the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!

We've likely all been around those people who we know have heard this their whole lives. And at times I've wondered how that continual message affects those people and how well they adjust to it. How do such words affect their mentality, how they feel about themselves (appropriately or not), and how they relate to those who complement them and to the rest of the world.

Then it occurs to me. My whole life and every moment of every day God has been telling me that "I" am the most beautiful thing He's ever seen. Mind boggling, I know! My next thought? How are those words affecting me, and how well am I adjusting to them? How does His continual message affect my mentality, how I feel about myself, and how I relate to Him and to the rest of the world?    

Hebrews 10:14    For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.

Psalms 139:14    I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.

Genesis 1:26, 31    Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness."  And God saw everything that he had made, and behold, it was very good.

1 John 3:1    See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are.

Colossians 2:10   And in Christ you have been brought to fullness.

Galatians 3:26    For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.   

(And the list could go on and on)
