Heather you just don't know. I read this before but I had to read it again. Well I am according to the state of FL homeless. No job. No husband. My mind is everywhere. All I have is a high school diploma. Sometimes, I feel like a failure. I feel like my dad and everyone else looks down on me. A 22 year old separated woman with 3 children. Then I have to tell myself to snap out of it. I have to practice what I preach. Once I stated on my fb status if I lose everything and I still have Jesus. Than I have lost nothing at all because he's all I need and more. When people turn their backs he's there. When I have no place to stay he shelters me. When I think I'm not pretty enough he reminds me who I am in him. That there's no flaw in me. So be encouraged. Thank you much for this specific blog. God bless you Heather.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02160326980695168399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5872995691133366505.post-87565007802911781942015-05-20T05:34:55.794-07:002015-05-20T05:34:55.794-07:00Thankyou Heather.

This is an issue every girl can relate to. I can honestly say the pressure to focus solely on our looks has reached an all-time high thanks to social media. My heart aches for young girls out there who measure their worth by the attention they receive from the opposite sex. Scrolling through the comments I couldn't help but sympathize with the girls in their early 20s who have never had a boyfriend or has never been on a date before. I'm in my 30s and still single, i have never been on a date. Yes you read that correctly. Now society will have you believe that there's something wrong with someone in their 30s and still single. And I can seat here and try to defend my relationship status at 30 something but who cares. I’ve dealt with my share of insecurities. For me I always felt like I wasn't beautiful enough. I would hear God say to me, "you are beautiful and i'm always looking at you" but that just wasn't enough for me. I needed that affirmation from humans; it felt awesome to hear someone say “you are beautiful”. I realized I was telling God in essence his thoughts about me don’t really matter. What an insult!!!. I’ve come a long way; I'm gradually improving and understanding that I’m beautiful enough. If God wanted to make me prettier, he would have done so from the beginning. He made me this way for his glory, he is pleased with me just the way I am regardless of what anyone else thinks. Even with this knowledge, i'm still tempted to compare myself to others every now and then. I have to proactively meditate on God's word and his thoughts about me. I want you to know that being in a relationship with some guy, being married, having kids, accomplishing your career goals (these are all great) are not the totality of your existence. God created you on purpose for a purpose. That purpose is to have an intimate relationship with him. I pray that God will continue to grant us the grace to embrace this purposeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5872995691133366505.post-91825294496973883462015-04-05T20:25:20.877-07:002015-04-05T20:25:20.877-07:00You are so right @Anonymous 11:33am. Being insecu...You are so right @Anonymous 11:33am. Being insecure is more about our relationship with God than it is about any person or thing. Insecurities tell you that you're not good enough. You don't measure up. It's an attack of the enemy as Heather stated in the post. The enemy does not stop attacking when you get married. Instead of not being pretty enough to get a man, the enemy's new tactic may be to try and get you to focus on all the pretty women at church who smile at your husband. Different MO but basically attacking that weakness in you. You are still the same person and the issues you face are still there. Gaining a certain status does not heal our soul's of infirmities. Only Jesus can do that. In my case, I have a wonderful man who loves the Lord and me but even he can't heal the brokenness in my heart. Only by me focusing more on Christ and not myself can I experience victory in this area. This post reminded me that I have a part to play which is staying before the Lord daily. I pray this response finds you ladies well. Be blessed. :)Alysia Huttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05312635776982934150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5872995691133366505.post-77575940608022468642015-04-05T20:03:05.059-07:002015-04-05T20:03:05.059-07:00Excellent!!!

Insecurities can/will surface whether you are married or not. It is a staple weapon of the enemy against all of us. Insecurity only fades when you focus on Christ and make Him your security and rock. Marriage, husband, constant friend, ticking your life goals, etc. are not insecurity blasters.

If He lets you go through it, it's because He already knows you CAN come through it.<br />-Everything God allows is neccessary, like he doesn't bring unnecessary things our way. He used something simple to illustrate this to me...even simple unplanned things. Maybe if they didn't happen, you wouldn't be pushed to get something important or needful in the future if it was left to you.<br />-Your trial will not only become a testimony to others in the future but it will give you encouragement and hope in future trials once you get through it<br />-In one way or another, trials bring opportunities for us to develop something we otherwise wouldn't <br />-As His child, God is always with you even if it looks like He isn't <br />-God loves you. <br />-God never stopped loving you <br />-He will never let the worst happen<br />-He is still watching you and cheering you on and ready to provide strength and grace whenever you need it for this trial.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
