Girls&Guys- I can Be your Friend, Psalm139:14

Girls, Guys,

Being curvy or stocky doesn't mean you're fat
Being you doesn't mean you're weird
Being single doesn't mean you're alone
Being imperfect doesn't mean you're ugly.
You are different.
That's what makes you perfect. And what makes you incredibly unique.



*****

I felt the need to post this tonight.  So many girls (including myself) battle daily with the way we look. We're shot with air-brushed photos of fake models,  Clothing and makeup adds daily pressure us to look or dress a certain way.  Even guys feel pressured if their small and underweight or tall and stocky.  We are all perfect the way God made us.

My absolute favorite bible verse-- One I believe everybody should memorize.

"I Praise you because I am Fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well."  ~ Psalm 139:14 

And With Veggie Tales on the brain today while at work today I remembered this song and its so perfect! I love you guys and I pray for you all :)  (sorry it was so last minute this week.)

Have you ever seen a boy with funny clothes?
A girl with braces on her teeth or freckles on her nose?
Some kids call them odd balls, some kids call them wierd
Is it my imagination or does aunt ruth have a beard?
God makes lots of people in all colors, shapes and sizes
He loves them very much and what we need to realize is:
That calling people names because they're different is wrong
Instead we need to look on them in love and sing this song

[chorus]
I can be your friend (na na na)
I can be your friend (na na na)
Any day any weather
We can be friends and play together

Ya were all pretty different some are skinny some are stout
But the inside is the part were supposed to care about
Aye! thats why we have feelings that are very much the same
So instead of saying wierdo i think friends a better name

[chours]
I can be your friend (na na na)
I can be your friend (na na na)
If your hair is red or yellow
We can have lunch i'll share my jello

I can be your friend (na na na)
I can be your friend (na na na)
*fades*
