What is beauty???

LETS RE-DEFINE BEAUTY!!!!
To be beautiful means something different to every person you ask. If you ask a girl what it means to be beautiful there answer would be something along the lines of being a size 0-3, nice size chest and the J-LO butt, is the definition of beauty or a model. The thing with girls is they are constantly comparing themselves with others,who are more beautiful. Add in society and media, and lets face it that makes a pretty potent thing for girls. The most difficult time in a girl life I would have to say is the high school years. It is critical time for most, it is the time most are trying to be come comfortable with their own body, and well for fun throw in boys. So now you have girls trying to impress these boys. They believe if they are not  beautiful or what the world defines as perfect then who could EVER love them. NO ONE could is what they believe there is so many self confident issues. Then the enemy likes to plants thoughts of well since no one could love you then you are WORTHLESS, UGLY, DISAPPOINTMENT, MANY MORE.   It is sometimes the longest time for girls and it is hard to come to terms with yourself and like what you have. But ladies have faith there is a guy who will love you for you. The quirks you have, your style, your laugh, your sense of humor, the flaws you hate about yourself. Just wait it hard to remind yourself but it is hard, learn to love yourself first because then it is easier to believe someone else can too. But God has a plan of who you are going to marry. He planned to make you the way you are. He says you are beautifully and wonderfully made and well God does not make mistakes. But why dont we make our own definition of beauty is and what it means to be beautiful.

The fear of the unknown

The unknown 
Everyone has is afraid of the unknown at some point in their life whether they admit it or not. It is scary for the simple fact you have to rely on faith. Faith that God has a plan that is best for you, though you may not like what you have to go through to get there. The fear of the unknown can consist of quite a few areas. For example the fear of whether or not you will get married?Where you will live in the future? How you're career will every possibly work out? How will I make it through college?Will my church still remain, will it come back together and heal?Who will be my friends later on will they be the same or will they go away? These are just a few questions and fears we have. Sometimes (okay a lot of the time) we tend to forget that God has a plan for us so just remember Jeremiah 29:11-14 it's three verse that easily remind you that he has a plan and he will listen to you. And the fear of the unknown the only way to overcome it is by having faith that God will take care of it all. Don't think that I have it all together or that I have overcome the fear of the unknown but I remind myself constantly that The Lord knows better than I. Someday I will overcome the fear, not today or tomorrow or anytime soon but someday it will happen. On that day I will fully and truly understand what it is to have faith and trust in my Heavenly Father. ❤️

Playing in the dark.



Playing in the dark.

Playing in the dark can be a dangerous thing. Some may ask why. Well the answer is quite simple you can hurt yourself way more in the dark than you would in the light. While in the light others can see what you can do, which I personally think scares people. Since others can see then , that means well you are then held accountable for your decisions. Being hold accountable means having responsibility. Let me tell you guys something. Sometimes being in the dark is not necessarily a bad thing, it can strengthen your walk with God. But it is one of the scariest things in your life. You are in a “pit” and let’s be honest you are the only one that puts yourself in there, it seems that you can never escape and you are filled with a sense of hopelessness and sheer terror. God seems so far away but really he never left your side and he has not moved, you are the one who moved further away. Though that does not take away what you are feeling. Next comes the feeling of shame, as people we do not like to admit when we are wrong, but you also think that how can anyone love me. They have no idea what I have done. Maybe you gave up some morals that you said that you would never give up, for some reason that at the moment seemed like a great idea. Or something that you believe is unforgivable. Well I have good news! God is this amazing person who forgives you and loves you no matter what. Sometimes you can only get out of this "pit" with his help. Sometimes the only way to get back to him is by crawling and well, you may not like that but he doesn’t mind. He loves you no matter what. Do not think that you have gone so far that God doesn’t love you, he waits and hopes for you to come to him. HE is the perfect gentleman he will not force himself on you.  Jesus says in Mark 2:17" It is not the healthy that need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come for the righteous but for the sinners" so even if you think you have been so far in the "pit" do not give up, do not stop trying to get up and even if you have to crawl until you can stand again. Remember every night has a dawn…it may be a long night but it will come eventually but do not lose faith.
