No Comparing

Dear Married Woman

Have you fought for so many things on behalf of others and end forgett about yourself? Well, that's me, Leslene.

I look in the mirror at times, thinking or even asking myself, "Leslene, do you think you're beautiful?", and only to end up answering "NO!!!" That used to happen so many times until God stepped in and blessed me with a scripture in Psalm 45:11. This scripture has become such a reality to me I can bless other with it freely.

Did you know, when you think less of yourself you end up missing out on life? You are meant to enjoy your beauty. Yes we have a desire to be beautiful even if we never win a beauty contest, but focusing on the outside, you automatically miss out on how God intends for your inner beauty to shine through.

So many people contact me because they struggle with themselves. I encourage them, making them feel better then end up feeling so low because i cannot encourage myself.

I've had so many friends, who is beautiful inside and out, but because my focus was on their beauty and not what lies within me, I ended up comparing myself to with them. I suppose God got fed up with that and allowed the friends to leave me.

I realised what was happening and now i thank God for what he did. I don't have to compare myself to others, because I am created in the image of God.

So my dear married woman, ""Make a careful exploration of who you are and the work you have been given, and then sink yourself into that... Don't compare yourself with others."

- Galatians 6:4 MSG
