Jeans - Realistically, the answer is some of them may, but not all of them. My rump, your rump, all rumps were created perfectly by God for a purpose other than being gawked at or being a measuring stick of our beauty or anything else for that matter.
Now I'm gonna get a little more personal with the lies I hear and some you may as well.
Lie: You will not be successful with your blog or etsy shop.
Truth: Define success? As long as what I do fulfills me and honors God that is success.
Lie: It's official. He's potty trained.
Truth: Pride comes before the fall. He's had 4 poopie accidents and countless tee tee accidents. Back to hourly bathroom breaks.
Lie: Fear means you lack faith.
Truth: "Sometimes faith is the absence of fear. Other times, faith may be choosing to believe God even when your heart is melting with fear." Beth Moore
Lie: I'm the only woman whose bum has more dimples than a golf ball.
Truth: It's hereditary and many combat this problem. Fughetta bout it. Besides, no one's looking at my bum but the hubs, and he loves it.
Lie: I'm a bad Mom.
Truth: My past does NOT define me. I have been forgiven and set free. My kids love me and I am the best Mom for them.
What are some of the lies that you hear? Will you make every effort to combat them with truth for one week (just for starters)? " Life is too short, even in these longest of days." John Cougar Mellancamp
It's the weekend friends - Go have fun and grab onto some truth! xo
Lie: I want change to be simple, instinctual, easy.
ReplyDeleteTruth: We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty. Part submission, part hard work.
lie: you will never be good enough- your weight, your hair, your clothes
ReplyDeletetruth: god created me the way i am and it's the beauty within that is important not the exterior
as a designer- always wanting everything to look perfect and be perfect i often find myself 'designing' a better version of me- i set these impossible standards for myself yet i love and accept everyone else around me- i see and celebrate their truth/beauty but daily i struggle to find mine
