I am beautiful.
I am beautiful.
I am beautiful.
But I am only beautiful because of God, because He lives in me. Without him, I wouldn’t believe it to be true. Worldly thoughts whisper to me of my physical flaws and emotional weaknesses. I hear them everyday. Even today, my thoughts were yelling “I hate you!” I hated myself because I’m not who I wish I could be.
But I realized God made me this way for reasons unknown to me. Who am I to ask Him what those reasons are? I’ll find out one day, maybe not even during this lifetime. But I should be grateful, because He made me just the way He wanted. He made me beautiful.
Such a hard concept for me to grasp.

have you ever felt unwanted by every single person in your life? have you ever told yourself that you’re worthless - that life would be easier for everyone if you weren’t around because you feel like you’re a burden? well, this is something i’ve always struggled with: my worth and my identity. as far as i can remember, i’ve never felt wanted… not by my family, or friends, or relationships.
this mindset of worthlessness is something that God has been refining this past year. the lies of the enemy, which were so drilled into my brain, have been replaced with the truth. i am beautiful. He delights in me and i am the apple of His eye. i am unique - one of a kind. i am irreplaceable.
this is what i have come to accept as the truth, but this past week was so hard for me. the enemy attacked me with lies again. he waited for the opportune moment. “you’re worthless. see, no one even cares about you. if you died, no one would even care.” in that moment, i was so confused that i contemplated these lies as truth, as i used to.
but after falling short and picking myself back up, i can honestly say this has made me stronger. no matter what lies the enemy tries to convince me of, deep down i know the truth and that is what the King thinks of me.
i am His and He is mine… and when i think of His love for me, oh - it’s just overwhelming.
