According to society, you have to be "good enough" to date someone. But what does that mean? Well, in society it means you have to be a certain weight, have a certain hair style/color, have a certain eye color, have a certain personality, have perfect makeup, have straight teeth, have long legs, etc.
So am I good enough to get the guy? Not according to society. I have brown hair, I have blue eyes, but I am a tad bit bigger. I have thick thighs, I almost always never wear make-up, and I have glasses. That's not the "society approved" look for a girl.
But wait! Maybe the clothes will make me "good enough" for a guy. Well, girls wear short shorts, short skirts, midriff-showing shirts, cleavage showing shirts, dresses that are too short, heels that hurt, etc. I wear modest clothing, when I can find it. I always cover myself up because I do not want guys getting the wrong impression. Yet, I do not wear "society approved" clothes. So I am not good enough for society.
However, I am good enough for God. I am perfect in God's eyes. I do not have to look a certain way, dress a certain way, act a certain way or be a certain way for Him to approve of me. He takes me as I am and nothing more. He shows me that He loves me and cares for me. He has someone out there for me that I need to wait on. As hard as that is, I have to do it. I have to wait for the man God wants me to be with to enter my life. I have to follow God's direction for my life to meet that man. I have to be open to God's direction and leading in order to get there. I don't have to push for someone to like me. I don't have to listen to someone tell me that "you're just not good enough for me." I'm good enough for someone out there. I am the perfect match for someone out there.
So, to the guys who don't think I'm pretty enough, smart enough, or good enough for them, I say goodbye. If you think that of me, then you are not worth my time. You are just a speck in my memories. I do not care what others think of you if you consider dating me, and neither should you. If someone tells you that they do not think I am good enough for you, why should you care about what others think of the one you date? It is your choice to date me, not theirs. You should decide if I am good enough for you. And to the one who inspired this, thank you. You made me see my value doesn't come from you, it comes from God.
