5 Ways To Love Your Body

Are you your own worst critic? Do you find yourself nitpicking over everything about yourself and especially your body? Do you feel embarrassed about your "problem areas?" Or do you feel like you have to make an excuse almost every time you talk to someone about how you feel with the way you look and feel?

If you have answered yes to almost every question or at least a few...rest assure that you are not alone. But this is a huge problem and it's something that you can and will overcome...all with a little love.

Love is such a powerful antidote. It doesn't cost anything. It's free. It's potent. It brings joy and happiness to yourself and those around you. And it's how you were created by our Lord.

Placing the Importance on Christian Values vs. Worldly Values

Do you ever feel conflicted with what your heart is telling you compared to what society is screaming at you? Maybe you feel conflicted about going back to school or maybe you're unsure what you should study? Or maybe it's more personal...maybe it's about if you should get married or if you should have kids? How many kids you should have? Should you get a "real" job outside the home? Or is it okay to stay home?

There are so many questions that we are flooded with on a daily basis. Should we? Shouldn't we? And most of the time we decide what we should do...based on what others tell us to, what society thinks we should be doing, or we look to see what others are doing and feel we should be doing the same.

Trusting God With Your Finances

To be completely transparent, this is a very hard thing for me to admit. I know I am not alone, but it's not something I am proud of.

You know the feeling when you can believe in someone, but still not fully trust them? Trust them to deliver what you need or what you want? Trust them to do what they say they will? Or maybe...it's that you don't trust that they always have your best interests at heart?

Well... this is actually how I feel about God at times. And believe me, it pains me to say that...but it's the truth.

And every time these feelings begin to creep in, God sends me a sign. A sign to prove to me how completely incorrect I am. He takes the time to prove His love time and time again.
