Who Do You See When You Look in the Mirror? from Laura Smith on Vimeo.

​I’ve been searching my whole life for beauty. Not in the world—there’s plenty of that—in the crimson of a cardinal’s feather, in the sound of waves crashing along a shore, in the melody of a Beatles’ ballad, or in a Chagall stained glass window. Yes, the world is filled with beauty, but me, well that was another story. It took me years to discover my true beauty, to fully grasp that I am made in the image of my Creator, and therefore, I am beautiful. The incredible thing is…so are you. You were marvelously made by God to inspire awe. You are beautiful no matter what the world tries to tell you, no matter what you try to tell yourself. No one can rob you of the true beauty God instilled in you.  I long to help others discover what took me so long to see: your true reflection in Christ.
