10 Bible Verses for the Girl Who Doesn't Feel Beautiful
TUMBLR

Whether you're 17, 21, or 50 we've all done it: struggled with our self esteem. We can't even go to the mall without pictures of Victoria's Secret models plastered on the walls wearing perfect lingerie with perfect bodies. We have become a society of comparing. We're not thin enough. Our butt isn't big enough. Our stomach isn't flat enough. We cake our makeup on. Show a little skin. And gossip about other girls to make ourselves feel better. We've become self absorbed, yet we hate ourselves. We've all done it. But through Christ we are SO much more. We are beautiful and loving towards others. We cannot fully love until we love ourselves. Through Christ we realize our inner beauty is so worthy. Here is what The Bible says about self love. These verses have gotten me through thick and thin and I can only wish they do the same for society. Through Jesus we are beautiful. Through Jesus your enemies are equally as beautiful. Become a society of empowerment.


1. Song of Solomon 4:7

You are altogether beautiful, my love; there is no flaw in you.

2. Psalm 139:13-14

For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.

3. Luke 12:7

Why, even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not; you are of more value than many sparrows.

4. Proverbs 31:30

Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.

5. Hebrews 10:35

Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.

6. Proverbs 3:15

She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her.

7. 1 Samuel 16:7

But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”

8. Proverbs 31:25

She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future.

9. Romans 12:3

For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.

10. 1 Peter 3:3-4 (my personal favorite

Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. 4 Rather, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
