Beauty of Thick Thighs

by phim

I am not overweight Yet I don't love being a size eight The media criticizing me Hypnotizing me Making me feel unimportant I know you sympathize with me But I am worth it Part of Gods eternal purpose My thick thighs Are beauty in His eyes And I don't have to worry about being unworthy When I'm giving God the glory he deserves My self image is perseved By Genesis 1:27 Or Ecclesiastes 3:11 He is constantly reminding me That world is full of lies Hiding behind the guise That I need to change Or rearrange myself to be loved This is untrue The God of heaven and earth Created and loves me And everyone of you

Sometimes I don't feel great about my body but it's actually wonderfully made. I know I have to remind myself that and I hope this serves as a reminder to you too.
