In this week's podcast, I talk about how I couldn't "fit" into a pair of designer jeans when I was 11 years old, and Jordache was all the rage. I was disappointed, of course, but there was no way I was going to get those slender jeans over my thighs and hips, even at 11! I just wasn't fitting into them. Or, could it be that they weren't fitting "me."
You see, we can look at it as if we don't fit, but the reality is that the circumstances, people, or clothing may not be fits for us!

You aren't made to fit in. You were created to do God's will.
Have you ever considered that you were made for more and something better than the thing that "everybody" seems to want in on?
Not everybody wants in on God, but everybody has a special place they "fit" into His plan, if they'll see through His eyes.
Your identity comes from Christ alone. Your identity does not come from the fact that you fit into jeans or not. You cannot believe a lie and live in the truth. Refuse the lies that steal your peace from your true identity in Christ.
Peace comes from knowing the Prince of Peace. Find your identity in Him.
You weren't created to settle for things, you were created to shine your unique beauty and gifts for Him. That's the best fit and always is stylish....unlike Jordache jeans which fade away.

This week has been absolutely crazy.
We've had a car in the shop. My counseling practice has needed me to spend hours on so many pieces of extra paperwork due to it being time for an insurance attestation (don't ask---it's been a nightmare!) And, of course, nothing is cooperating tech-wise, and I'm ready to throw the tech out the window 😩. Yet, there are so many blessings.

What has been a blessing to you this week?
I'll bet you have felt this way at times, too. It's like there are so many good things, and yet, there are stressors.
The key to managing everything is self talk and prayer.

How are you talking to yourself? Positively or negatively?
How you talk to yourself matters. You can either speak soothing, encouraging words, and words of patience to uplift yourself, or you can speak the language of stress, put downs, and labeling.
And of course, prayer always helps! Let me tell you, I've been positive self-talking' and praying a whole lot this past week!
Well, here's to rejoicing in the good things, trusting God always, and enduring the stressors of life with grace.
