Insecurity...

Since my last post, I found out that I am in adrenal failure. It IS reversible and have to work harder at getting on a sleep regimen, de-stressing (yeah, I don't know what THAT means), and really be on point with my clean eating. 

But today, I want to talk about insecurity! We ALL face it - on various levels and types of it - but we all got it.

Insecurity is the recognition of an area of vulnerability, the general sense of did-ease in one's own skin. It is like a mold in your kitchen: it's never welcome, but it seems to crop up in all kinds of places. The difference is this: I would never let mold remain on my bread or in my fridge, yet so often we women (and men) readily accept insecurity like it's a normal part of life.

We have insecurities about appearance, approval, relationships, achievement. Insecurity keeps us self-focused and ultimately paralyzed in our life and relationships.

So we (including myself) need to stop feeling this way and find our security in Christ - beautifully and wonderfully made! This is hard when society berates us and fills our head with the impossible to live up to. By just doing and being the way GOD created us to be and WHO we are - that's enough to be at peace with ourselves.
