God has made you exactly the person He wants you to be. He has made you beautiful in His eyes and crowned you with glory and honor. (Psalms 8:4-5) I was so encouraged reading this verse. Two days ago I was talking with a girl who was so upset by the way she looks. She was blaming God for who she is. Because of this she started dressing in a way that she can attract others. 🙁
Be happy with how God has created you. Don’t try to change just because someone else didn’t like the way you look. The Bible says “I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works” Psalms 139:14. Another person can never make you to be as good as what God has made.
You must develop within yourself the tenacity to disagree with those who feel differently about you than you do. Take the position and say calmly, “you have your opinion, but I also have mine. I like myself, I value myself, and I know God does, too”. Tell them, ” excuse me, I choose to agree with what God has said about me!”
Its not worth worrying about other peoples opinion. Stay focused on God alone. The more time we spend gazing upon His beauty, His face will shine upon you. Psalms 34:5 says ” They looked to Him and were radiant.
Wholeness comes to you when you turn to Him in your weakness, your pain, your suffering, and allow Him to do for you what no one else can do.
Have you been in this kind of situation and what was your reaction?
I am sure as teens many of us have faced this peer pressure and also wanted to look like our companions and always felt insecure. But once we come to know the Lord and understand that we are fearfully and wonderfully made in His image and in His likeness; we should value ourselves as the pearl of great price.
Thanks for this post.
Yes sister rightly said! We should always know that we are so precious in His sight.
God bless you
