1 KINGS 8:45
Have you ever felt like you were not good enough, pretty enough, or skinny enough? A better question might be, Who hasn’t felt that way? So many people have negative feelings about themselves, and sometimes they’ll do really drastic things, like have sex or try drugs, to feel better about themselves. I talked to one of my friends recently about this, and he opened my eyes to a very good point. He asked me if I really wanted help or if I wanted to stay feeling bad about myself forever. I told him I wanted help, and he said two simple words: “Just pray.” I’m all the time trying to take on my entire load of problems and all the burdens and guilt that come along with it. He told me to just ask for help. Wow, it is just as simple as that. Because isn’t that what God’s there for?
