Point to Ponder: I am not an accident
Verse to Remember: " I am your Creator. You were in my care even before you were born." Isaiah 44:2
Question to Consider: I know that God uniquely created me. What areas of my personality, background and physical appearance am I struggling to accept?
For me it is what about my personality, turns people away...or do I help create that. It's also that I do have this huge wall up and no matter how hard I try to crumble it, it's not budging. I also question as to whether or not I self sabatoge. Why is it so hard for me to just put it in God's hands and let it be? There are so many things about my physical appearance I would love to change. My body being number 1. I have found here lately, I want perfection and in some sick sense feel like this will bring me closer to what I want to achieve...people can lie all they want to but physical appearance is a huge thing for most people. I find myself wanting skin treatments, botox, etc. I recently bought a full length mirror thinking I could get over my fear of looking into it...but I can't, it's still in my car. I understand to some people these concerns are very petty, but they are my concerns and those who care about me should validate these but be supportive and loving. I am sick of hearing, you are so pretty, you just need to lose some weight. Or constantly have you made a love connection, are you planning on giving your parents a son-in-law or grandchildren? BACK off people...I struggle with that enough, I do not need your pressure along with the pressures of society knocking me in the head. I mean think about it, if you are single or do not have kids, you are not a part of the couples showers, couples parties, kids parties, etc. In order for you to attend those, you HAVE to be a couple!!! I have not been a part of many showers and such for my close friends and loved ones because I did not have a partner. WTF ever!!!! I want to be able to overlook that and not have my feelings hurt, it's just another thing, not a huge deal, but some people can hurt you more than they realize and it is sometimes the smallest thing either said or done that causes the most pain.
Wow, kind of went into another direction, but it felt good to say those things because I would never actually say those to anyone. Those words are hurtful and regardless of who things I am a mean person, I don't like hurting people, AT ALL!!! So I feel a little more at peace getting that out. Now, hopefully sleep :) Hey a girl can dream can't she!!!
