Uglybeyoutifulme Movement: I love me I love me NOT…..Have you ever struggled with low self-esteem? Or are you currently struggling with not esteeming yourself higher than you should? No worries, I have been there too. I really did not like anything about myself; I always thought I was too dark, too short, and not pretty. Low self-esteem is when you devalue your self-worth. Self-worth cannot be measured by anyone else’s standard but God. When we try to live up to another person(s) standard we will NEVER measure up! We are constantly bombarded with images that tell us or give us the standard of beauty; media, FACEBOOK, Reality TV, magazines etc. One of the challenges I had as I was going through my uglybeyoutifulme journey was having the ability to love myself completely. I would compared my flaws to others, I always felt like there was ALWAYS someone MORE; smarter, prettier, taller, or had longer hair and if I did not measure up then I felt inadequate which in turn lowered my self-esteem. The reality is there is always going to be someone more, smarter; prettier, taller, or have longer hair. I learned I cannot measure my worth on outer appearance of self or others; cause “charm is deceitful, beauty is vain but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.” My worth is now in that of Christ and He stated that I am fearfully and wonderfully made; I have learned to love ALL of me. Have you struggled in this area? How did you overcome? Please share…
