@Amy @ Finer Things, And yet coming from the other perspective, at 25 when I was pregnant, I though “I’ll never be as mature or wise or good at being a mom as these women in their 3o’s”

I felt lonely- like I was alone giving birth to my son while in my 20′s.

We’re all insecure at some point I guess.

Myra, you are gorgeous…inside and out! You’ll always be thinner than me–so take heart! I’m so privileged to call you my friend…your inner woman is the loveliest part of you, and it’s all the better because it shows outwardly, too. Love you at all times…and forever, friend!

Oh Sweet Girl! I love when your heart shines through so brightly. You are sharing a part of you that we all share. Your a beautiful stunning woman, and it shows through your appearance and your actions. Love you!

I waited to see all these wonderful comments — I pray they fill you full and you know – it is a human struggle so many of us fight – yet never God’s intention! Daughter of the King – beautifully restored to be righteous and dazzling in the eyes of our Maker.

love your honesty, love your heart – love you!

This post really touched me. I too have extra weight that is making me battle some insecurities. I have 3 children, 3, 2, and 5 months, and the weight isn’t coming off as easily as it did with my first one. Thankyou for your honesty and allowing us to see your heart.

I think most of us feel this way. I too have gained a lot of weight since having children, and I didnt like my body before, now it really disgusts me. I dont know how to get past this when the whole world judges you on your appearance, and especially when we are so self critical, it just seems like an endless mountain to climb. I guess we just need to focus on the blessings in our lives more, and appreciate what we have, even if its not a models figure.

I struggle with this constantly. I’ve always been thin (except when pregnant when I pack on the pounds), but recently I’ve gained a bit of weight. It’s only a few pounds, but the fear that is never far from me is that I won’t be able to stop it. That someday I will be a different me. I still struggle with being secure in the person God created me to be instead of putting my security in what others think of me.
