Body image issues? me too...

I have always been so uncomfortable about my legs. I hate wearing shorts, and when I do, I instantly regret it. I feel like everyone is looking at them and seeing what I see: not small enough, not muscular enough, not toned enough, too jiggly, and omg can they see the cellulite? The thing is, everyone has that one thing about them that they over-scrutinize and feel self-conscious about.

I recently had a cool talk with a friend of mine, and we were discussing this very thing. WHY are we so hard on ourselves? Why is it so hard to accept that we are beautiful in God's eyes?

I ask myself these questions every day, and I really have no answer except that I need to work on my mindset. Seems easy, but it's the hardest thing I've ever tried to do! Yes, I want to take care of my body and be healthy, but as soon as I make that an idol, God is out of the picture and I'm feeling self-conscious and upset again. I want to remember DAILY to view myself through God's eyes. GIRLS the King of kings adores YOU so much!! Try not to forget that the next time you scrutinize yourself in the mirror. Do not allow the devil that foothold in your life... he doesn't deserve the attention you are giving him. Refocus on God and let him open your eyes to see yourself the way HE sees you: BEAUTIFUL and crafted perfectly in HIS IMAGE!
