Hello! I'm sorry that I have been MIA for a couple of weeks. Life happens, but we are back!
Today, we'll be talking about the SKINNY OBSESSION that we all have in this society.
Young girls are punishing their bodies for what they think society says is beautiful. If they don't feel beautiful, they get teased in school, or some traumatic events happen in their lives, they choose to either NOT eat or binge/purge. THIS is NOT ok. The ache in their stomach takes distracts them from the pain in their hearts.
How can we have our children have healthier self-esteem or self-worth, so they do not end up like us, adults, with these issues? Psalm 18:24 says, "God rewrote the text of my life when I opened the book of my heart to His eyes." We introduce our kids, boys and girls, to how beautiful they are and to the One Who created them - to give them a healthy self-confidence.
Teaching and even us re-learning how to eat healthy, clean - the way God intended us to be - will give each and every one of us a healthy emotional heart and mind.
We need to stop obsessing over what society thinks is beautiful or being the "it" person. Being comfortable in our own skin - whatever that may look like at this moment - is vital. If you are NOT comfortable in your skin, make a plan to change it in a HEALTHY way. Ask God for direction and help in where HE wants you to be.
STOP OBSESSING... START LIVING!
