Thank you all for being so patient while I was away. For those of you that don't know, I have a blog group on FB where I post a ton of extra blog/Adela/Random stuff! So please be sure to join us there if you want more of my craziness in your life! haha!
Today we are talking about something that has come into my mind over the years, even before blogging. I think this is something that is particularly important for younger girls and even for us older girls too! It is so, so, SO important to Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful
You're probably asking yourself how this applies to a Faithful Friday, right? Let me explain...
There is a TON of pressure on us women (or young girls) to do our hair a certain way, to do our makeup a certain way, to dress like this or that. That is NONSENSE!
One thing that really bothers me is when beautiful people are comparing themselves to others. If you have a young girl in your life, Please remind her constantly that she is beautiful. I know we all go through that awkward phase of feeling like you don't fit in or being unsure of yourself. So please encourage her and help her realize that she is beautiful in her own way. It will pay off when she gets older. She will grow into a woman that is confident, strong, and wont be treated poorly by others.
Women of any age can agree that some of us constantly compare ourselves to others. Don't do that! Your hair doesn't have to be like hers, you don't need the best outfit. For example: I try to be cute when I get dressed for church but I am horrible at putting outfits together. So sometimes, if I get annoyed with clothes, I will throw on some cuffed skinny jeans, a t-shirt, and some sneakers and head to church. Jesus doesn't care what I'm wearing! and you know I'm not lying because you've probably seen me wearing that at church. haha!
Another thing, stop tearing each other down! Strong women should be building each other up and supporting the ones who are having a hard time. Cheer each other on! Be proud of one another! Love on each other! Just think of how many more friendships you could have if you practiced love instead of hate. Don't be clique-ish. Don't be mean! I mean, would it kill you to smile at someone??
I could do an entire post on that topic alone. (Rant over!)
In a nut shell- YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! No matter what you look like, what you dress like, or whatever it might be. If you are ever having self-doubt, remember that you are the daughter of a King! He has amazing plans for your life and created you the way you are for a reason. He thinks you are beautiful! and as a matter of fact, I think you're beautiful too!
So I urge every single one of you to Be Your Own Kind of Beautiful.
I am going to wrap this up here, I hope that you were inspired by this post.
Until next time...
Xoxo,
Adela
