Stretch/Inspiration:

Psalm 139:14 “I will praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Marvelous are your works.”

From time to time, most of us complain about our bodies. Especially in today’s world with social media, we compare ourselves to others. We forget that God’s master plan specifically included our features. When we know we are “fearfully made,” we should consider our bodies with a kind of reverence. We are looking at God’s handiwork. And he makes NO mistakes. So maybe we should COMPLAIN LESS and PRAISE MORE. Our bodies are the temple of The Holy Spirit, so we should take pride in them, take care of them, and make them the healthiest we can, because we are all God’s work. You never know who is watching you, looking up to you (daughters, friends, etc) so we should set Godly examples and be encouraging. Next time you look in the mirror and want to beat yourself up, think to yourself, “Is what I am about to say about myself honoring to God’s marvelous work?” “Am I being a positive example to my children?” Remember, you are fearfully and wonderfully made, and God makes NO mistakes!
