A Time For Change

Do you ever just look in the mirror, and wonder who you see? Is it who you want it to be? I tend to see myself as someone else often. I've always wanted to be someone else, not myself, ever. I know that not just I, but others, often girls, say that they wish they were like some other girl, or that they looked better, or could do this or that. I've always been that person. I'm never satisfied with who I am, who God made me to be. Sure, there have been parts of my life that have led me to think this way. It's taking a lot of learning just to think of myself as anything above wrong. I'm constantly believing these lies that I'm not good enough, and that I never will be. I think that is one of the main lies most people believe about themselves. The past few years I have been learning more of the truth, that God made me in His image, and I am perfect in His eyes. And even though I know this to be true, I'm not sure how much my heart believes it, my head may, but my heart might not. There is a fine line between knowing something, and believing it. I want to spend my summer changing, not making myself into someone else, just improving who I am in Christ. I'm tired of this feeling on negativity all day, everyday, and constantly worrying what other people think of me, because honestly, it doesn't even matter. I should be living to glorify God, not people, because people will only let you down. I see this summer as a time for change, and new beginnings.
