I’m disgusting!

Have you ever looked at yourself this way? 

It might be a dissatisfaction with the way you perform, maybe you feel shame towards your body, or maybe you’ve just felt like you don’t measure up. 

I think we have all had a moment where we don’t feel very valuable. 

I get frustrated with my weaknesses. 

I dont’ know why I have to be so confrontational. It’ just comes natural for me. 

I wish I wasn’t so impatient. I know it annoys others

I can’t figure out why I am critical at times.

If only I could be taller, 

Have better hair, 

Weigh less

Be more athletic

Be more likable. 

Talk differently and have different gifting. . . 

The list goes on! If I were to sit here and think about it too long, I can start to get depressed! In fact, I can start to wonder if I am even able to be liked. Am I a mistake? Can one person really be this annoying? Have this many problems? Be so stubborn and difficult? 

It’s interesting to think that at my weakest, lowest, most offensive point, Christ died for me. Maybe it’s because he didn’t fully understand how awful and evil I am. Could that be the problem? 

Pslam 139 would disagree with this. It’s a reminder that God not only knows every single things about me, but he loves me, and even more - wants to be around me. In fact, he won’t let me go!
