Do you ever look in the mirror and doubt yourself? Or maybe that's just me. Insecurities have followed me around for as long as I can remember. I have always compared my outer appearance to others. When I liked a guy, I just assumed he would like one of my friends more than me. And as much as I hate to admit it I still do this once in awhile. Those insecurities about my looks follow me around. If I feel good about myself, I am quickly shut down by that voice in my head telling me I am not enough. The difference between then and now is that now I know what those insecurities are. They are the devil. The devil is that thing that follows me around. He is always there to be the first to tell me I am not enough or that I should compare myself to others. And he probably does it to you too. But good news! You want to know who is stronger than the devil? God! God is stronger than the devil. I know right? Pretty awesome that we have the strength to defeat the devil because God is within us. When you start to hear the devil telling you that you aren't enough go back to what God tells us. We were made in His image and likeness. How could we be anything less than incredible and beautiful? God spent so much time on us. He made us His beloved daughters and sons. The devil wants us to believe that we are unworthy or not beautiful or weak because when we truly believe this, we are telling God that we don't believe Him. We are forgetting who made us and what He gave us. He gave us His strength. He is always in us so therefore we have the strength to get through anything. When we believe the devil, we are drawn farther away from our loving father. So please know that you are SO beautiful and strong regardless of what the devil may tell you. God worked so hard on you and gave you so much strength. Don't be afraid to embrace it. Don't be afraid to see your worth. Don't be afraid to show the world God's unique design. Love yourself because you were made in the image and likeness of your Heavenly Father. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. You are LOVED.
