My face is too round.
My thighs are too big.
My stomach isn't flat.
My body is so awkward.
My teeth aren't super white.
I'm too pale.
I have big feet.
My arms are too chubby.
My arms are too chubby.
Let's face it. We all have insecurities. And if you look to others and say, "I wish I looked like them"...I can promise you, they have the same insecurities as you do. Let's take a look at the facts...
Britney Spears. Shaved her head.
Demi Lovato. Anorexic.
Justin Bieber. Works out every single hour.
Miley Cyrus. Cut her hair off and parties all the time.
Amanda Bynes. Now into drugs and crazy.
See? These people demonstrate their insecurities through the lifestyles that they are living. If they thought they were perfect, they wouldn't feel the need to act in such a way. Demi Lovato has confessed to feeling weird due to the fact she is in the Maxim's Hottest list.
If only we could all realize the fact we are made PERFECT in His image. Isn't that crazy to think about? He has made us exactly the way He wanted. If this is true, why do we so often focus on what is wrong with us and not focusing on the good? I know this is not an easy thing to do, but if we let those thoughts fill our minds daily, we are never going to be content in the image of Christ. If we constantly focus on the negative, we will start to feel like we are never good enough. YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH. If you start to say, "Well, no one likes me..." These are lies from the devil and we can't dwell in these thoughts. Remember that God has perfect timing and perfect ways. So from now on, I challenge you to look in the mirror and start pointing out the positive attributes that God has blessed you with.
I have pretty eyes.
I am loving.
I have the ability to listen and be slow to speak.
I have a nice smile.
I am kind hearted.
I am easy to be around.
I can fit in almost anywhere.
But most importantly, my identity is found in Christ.
