You Are Good Enough

Strongly dislike to see people think they are not good enough. You are. You are good enough because He made you. Don't measure how beautiful/handsome you are to Instagram/Facebook likes or daily compliments. You are God's creation and He wondrously made you. 

I struggled with this for years. I would cry myself to sleep in middle school because people would tell me flat out - you're ugly! I would then realize since I was so unhappy with my outside appearance I was ugly on the inside - I became bitter and angry towards people with their attitudes and comments, especially with all the moving. I would fight verbally & argue continuously. I felt like people put standards on me not even GOD would ever put on me. I got to the point and remember praying to God if I can't be pretty physically then change me inwardly to be like You so I can be some kind of beautiful. This was obviously not an overnight process - it took time. 

But one must remember, a beautiful outside can't conceal a broken, ugly, inside. Make up and masks are temporary. They eventually come off. Some of the prettiest women/handsomest men get no attention. And I think God likes it that way. His best is sometimes hidden.
