Hi there,
This is beautiful. I love the richness of your language, and while it's simple it still conveys a powerful message that in my own personal opinion is an extremely relevant one. It's short, sweet, to the point and you definitely know how to use words to say what you want to say. I just have a few comments on what you can do to make this even better!
First off, it's so general that it teeters on the edge of being forgettable. Whether this piece is tailored to your own experience or to that of a fictional character, I would flesh it out more. As it stands it's very abstract and while that is partly what I like about it, my favorite stories are ones that have characters with which I can identify. Take the narrator on a path that we can follow, bring us through obstacles that she can overcome, and we will feel a deeper to connection to this story.
Secondly, I don't like the ending. I totally respect whatever religion someone chooses to follow, but it cuts off what should be a universal message to only a Christian population. There are a lot of people who don't believe in God, so telling them that they are beautiful because God loves them is going do nothing. God can certainly be in there, but if you make it the only solution you're going to lose a lot of people.
I hope this helps! Best of luck~
