Isaiah 45:9 Woe to him who contends with his Maker... Dare the clay say to its modeler, “what are you doing?” Or, “what you are making has no hands?”
Who are we to challenge what God has created? God knows what is best for us, and he created us specifically for certain roles. Who are we to argue with the Creator? Instead of trying to change ourselves to fit the world, we need to change ourselves to be images of Jesus. God made each of us unique. I have a preteen, and I know the issues of beauty and appearance will come up. I have already been teaching her that God made her the way she is for a reason. She is smaller than most kids her age, and it is a struggle now and then. But she is learning to accept herself.
We need to be confident in our God given bodies, and stop trying to change how we look to please others, We need to use the gifts God has given us to show his word and light to others. We are here on this earth to mirror Jesus and his works. God molded us into the right form. He is molding us each and every day. Trust in His choice.
