Grab a tissue and watch this A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. video. From an A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. initiative called Help-Portrait Nashville. There are no words. Everyone is beautiful, indeed.

Why am I here, and why are they there?

Oh, my, Amy. That was so moving and beautiful and heartbreaking and encouraging and inspiring! It was all of those things and more! I can’t imagine never feeling “special” before b/c each of those people seemed pretty special to me. I’m just sorry they might not have felt it like I saw them. Does that make sense? Thank you for sharing that.

Heather, that makes total sense. I felt/feel the same way. You should’ve seen the astonished looks on even my kids’ faces when they realized the one gentleman had never been photographed except for jail . . . it’s amazing how little it takes–and what pitifully little I do–to love someone like Jesus loves. Whether foot washings or make-up or photographs. Wow.

What a beautiful, moving video. I was not aware of this wonderful group. Thanks for sharing this and making us aware. I just went over to Twitter and started following them.
You know, the knowledge that we are all beautiful is one of the most important messages in healing, in my opinion. This would be a great message for survivors, if you feel like submitting it to
