Assuming you believe in God.
A friend of mine said something to the effect of “I have things I don’t like about myself and sometimes I don’t feel like I’m good enough.” In an effort to remind her that she is indeed ‘enough,’ I sent her a message with a verse from the bible. Ephesians 2:10 in the King James Version says “For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.” That verse is powerful to me because it’s a reminder of something easily forgotten. We are the creation, evidence and artwork of an omnipotent being. That’s sounds pretty darn awesome to me. That being said, we may have things about our internal and/or external that we want to improve or deem to be flaws, but because of how we were created and who were created by, we have the potential for greatness- even in a small form.
