My hair has its own personality, character traits, and zip code. Naturally, my hair is curly, wild, frizzy, unruly, and unmanageable, even after using 15 hair products at once, all claiming to tame my hair’s wild side. God knows my hair struggles, my personal struggles, and the struggles I will face in the future. He knows the coloring, the heat, the lies I have believed, and damaging effects I have caused to my hair and my heart. He even knows my losses. So, when I wrestle with my hair and heart issues, knowing nothing on this earth will ever be enough, I rest in knowing Jesus and His Holy Word are enough! His promises maintain my worthy heart and scattered curls right down to the roots. In all His majesty, he keeps track and counts each textured strand on my head, caring about the deeper details of me. How marvelous and loving is that! “Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.” Matthew 10:29-31″Gray hair is a crown of splendor; it is attained in the way of righteousness.” Proverbs 16:31God loves us unimaginably enough to place these verses about our hair in scripture. His Truth counts us worthy. The hair he created me to have, and you to have, surely proves he cares about the most intimate and finite details of our beings. This allows us freedom from the lofty cares of today and tomorrow. God has us and our bad hair days in mind and in hand. He is all we need.I pray you know He who created you and your hair, perfectly loves you deep into the roots on top of your head and your heart! You are worthy!
