I’m always supporting, always celebrating someone else’s engagement, baby announcement, or other well wishes. But, when will that time of celebration come for me? What’s wrong with me that’s keeping me from having those moments? Is it my weight? I used to be over 250 pounds in high school but that weight is long gone, but still no date or even potential. Changed up my style just a little, but still nothing. No one is swiping right on the apps and can’t buy a date! What’s wrong with me?! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! It took a while for me to get to this place.
The enemy has a way of playing mind games to make you think that because you don’t look a certain way, associate with a certain group of people, or lay down with every guy that smiles at you, that it’s obviously something wrong with you. God had to remind me of who He created me to be. And as the old saying goes, “God don’t make no junk!”.
Are there times when I want to ask “why” or “how much longer”? There most certainly are. And during those times, I cry or talk to my Father (and he lets me get it all out) and then He reminds me that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Not only that, but He knows the desires of my heart because He put them there. And when His timing is right, when I’ve learned the lessons I needed to learn, when I’ve given it all completely over to Him…He’ll make it good.
So, nothing is wrong with you or me. He’s still molding His best for us…
