Fearfully and wonderfully made

Can I say something to all the ladies out there that might be reading this? Ladies, you are all fearfully and wonderfully made! The Bible says so in Psalms 139:14. "I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made."
Ladies, you are royalty, and you are woman of the most High! Ephesians 2:10 says " For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ, Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago."
You are so beautiful and God loves you sooooo much! You are 100%  special and unique. God created you the way you are for a purpose.

We all have insecurities, but when we let them get the best of us who has the power? Satan does. We can't continue to let satan play off our insecurities. I am so thankful that God does not see me the way that I see myself. I'm sure we've all picked up a magazine and thought to ourselves "Wow! I wished I looked just like her! I wish I was prettier, skinnier, taller, more athletic", and the list goes on and on. Let me repeat myself and say that God created you the way that you are for a reason. You are unique and there is not another person in this world that is exactly the same as you. Isn't that so cool? Let's be real, the girls in most of the magazines that we have all read and looked at have been photo shopped and tweaked. In real life they probably look similar to you and I. They are probably a few pounds heavier than what they would like us to all believe, and their makeup has probably been airbrushed. I'm sure we would all look just as good as them if we could have someone professionally do our hair and make up each morning before we headed out to start our day. TRUE BEAUTY comeshttp://youtu.be/-ks3R2BwyO0 from within. Don't let the world's standards bring you down or make you feel bad about yourself. "But, the Lord said to Samuel, 'Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things man look at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart' 1 Samuel 16:7

For so long I had been believing the lie. I thought that I wasn't good enough. I thought I wasn't skinny enough, pretty enough, tall enough, tan enough, or athletic enough. God made me the way that I am for a reason and He thinks I am absolutely beautiful and to die for! (Literally) Do I like what I see in the mirror everyday? No. But even on my "ugly" days as I like to call them, God sees a beautiful masterpiece. We have got to stop comparing ourselves to other people because in the end it will only leave us empty. We will never be JUST like someone else. I think if we continue to compare ourselves to other people and we always want to be prettier, skinnier, smarter etc, then we are taking the focus off of God and putting it on ourselves and others. We don't need more people walking around trying to be a savior. We need a SAVIOR and His name is JESUS!

You don't have to be perfect! God is not mad at you....He's madly in love with you!

Ladies, You got the power because of Christ!

"God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them" Genesis 1:27
