We Will Never Be Good Enough HOWEVER!

"Your hair is not the right color! Your eyes are too small! Your stomach is too big! You are not good enough!" How many times do we has women hear this? My heart breaks as I watch a girl with a perfect figure walk by and immediately I start to think: "What if..." Isn't there somebody who knows how special I am? Somebody who knows my pain? I start to believe there is no one out there, my heart just keeps going through a grinder getting shredded to pieces by all the world expects of us.

The world will tell us females how to look, how to act, and what we should do for a living. If it was up to this world honestly all women would be good for is housekeeping, mating, and looking good! But ladies, we have so much more to offer! Psalm 139:13 "You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb". God , the CREATOR of the universe, created our most delicate/inner parts and put us together in our mother's womb! Does that not mean enough for us to rethink our strategy. If the we keep losing the game why do we not try a new strategy? One may be thinking of different ways to change our thinking but God our creator who sent His "one and only Son" Jesus Christ to die for our sins (John 3:16) wrote us a handy manual. The manual is THE BIBLE. I am not trying to preach goodness I am no saint, but I as much as the next woman am sick of trying to live the worlds standards! "When am I going to mean something in this world?" This question I ask myself every day, and the answer is NEVER! "When am I going to be good enough to enter the Kingdom of Heaven and be happy for eternity?" NEVER, however I can enter the Kingdom of Heaven by the Grace of God. I accept the ultimate sacrifice (Jesus, Christ) and accept the fact that on my own I will never earn my way into heaven , but it is by faith not works in which I can be saved. Romans 3:23 "For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God." Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life, through Jesus Christ, our Lord"


Romans 11:6 " And if they are saved by God's kindness, then it is not by their good works. For in that case, God's wonderful kindness would not be what it really is--free and undeserved."

and the verse in which one shall remember in hard times

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that He sent His one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life"
