Body positivity



Hi!

Do you know of anyone who struggles with acceptance of their body?
Do they call themselves fat, ugly, too skinny, too tall or too short?
Well, ask them if they made something, and someone pointed out all the "flaws", what they would say to that.

Well, if your a Christian, then you know that God made you the way He wanted you. You don't have a "flaw" that He didn't put there. You are the way you are because of Him. He made you tall, short, skinny, fat, because that's the way He wanted you.  He created you in His eyes the way you are supposed to be.
So next time that you  call yourself ugly, remember, Someone made those "flaws" because they care about you, and that They love you.

You're never ugly, too fat, or too tall, your exactly as your supposed to be!
I constantly call myself ugly, but I know that I'm not, since God created me beautiful inside and out. But it's hard to get rid of a habit. And that's what that is, a habit. I have a habit of calling myself ugly. I'm trying to stop, and so far it's working. Do you have a habit like that? Then change, stop saying that kind of stuff. Instead of starting off your day by calling yourself fat, or ugly. Look at the positive side of everything! "Wow, I'm really tall, I'm glad God made me that way."  Or, "Wow!  I'm so beautiful!"
If you try it, you'll see that you have a better additude throughout your day.
We have to learn to accept our bodies the way God made them, otherwise we won't ever accept ourselves as we are.
"You are altogether beautiful my darling; there is no flaw in you."
Song of Solomon 4:7


"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them."
Genesis 1:27

 "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them."
Ephesians 2:10

    Hey, this is so true! You are certainly no ugly and good for you for stopping saying that about yourself!

    Though, there are things we do to ourselves that God didn't make about us... we are meant to be good stewards of everything God gave us, including our bodies. So what we eat, how we exercise does matter! God may have made some girls with wider hips or some guys with large torsos... but he didn't make people obese or anorexic. Just a thought to consider.

    You look neither, of course! But amazing. Keep taking care of yourself, and keep believing this truth about how God made you!

    Good for you! We do need to be more mindful of how when we criticize the way we look, often we're really criticizing God's handiwork. (I do agree with Keturah, though, of course. :))

    Thanks for sharing! ;)

Review of When Through Deep Waters

Image
I just finished reviewing this book and I have to say, it was fabulous!! Tyndale House Publishing are the ones who I went through to review it. They  are awesome! Anywho, onto the book! I have never read anything like it before, but I loved it. I was skeptical at first, but it turned out great! There was intrigue, mystery, heartache, and sweet dreams,etc etc. Alicen was a troubled woman who was overcoming a lot of things, and I think that Rachelle Dekker wrote the story well. The words and sentences to me matched up with Life After by Katie Ganshert. Which is a book I love! So good job Rachelle!! The only thing I didn't like about it was that there was too much death. The first death was necessary for the story, but I didn't like the second death. The back cover: "Alicen McCaffrey finally has the life her mother always dreamed for her: beautiful home in Santa Monica, successful husband, adorable daughter. Then tragedy blows her carefully assembled façade to p...

Losing someone you love

Now, many people have lost someone they love, I lost my grandpa right before Christmas.  I was devastated, but there wasn't anything I could do. My brain told me it was coming when he was sent to stay in the hospital, yet my heart had hope.  I really wanted to be able to see him again, it will happen one day in Heaven, but not earth. A few weeks before he was hospitalized (hope its spelled right)  I was talking to him on the phone, he was telling me how I used sit on his lap, he'd scratch my back, and I'd beg him to take me to Buddy Freddie's, I love that place, and still would had it not closed down. I have one last memory of going there on my sixth birthday before we moved.  From Florida to Texas, quite a distance by car. See, everytime we would talk, he would ask me the same threw questions, he was joking around but they were real, I won't give out this questions because I don't want to, but I wish I could've said yes one of those times he asked but I...

Okay, so I want to write this post about our new goats! We have 10 goats now! Orginally 5 but 3 gave birth. The mama's are- Reese, Sophie, and Natasha. I will post a picture of each baby and tell you the name and gender and mother. Plus a few little details about them.  Have fun!! This baby is Cocoa. Her mama is Reese. My sister got this picture and unfortunately this is the best one! Lol, she did not want to pose for a picture! She was born on the 6th. She is so cute, big and playful! So so sweet!
