INSECURITY, You've been a BAD Friend......

Insecurity is such a major, but silent poison amongst the community of women. With our precious jewelry, fine china, luxury cars and beautiful homes, we are able to hide underneath it all. Surely she's not speaking to me... I hear you!! Yes I am on your street, but I'm sitting on the block with you. Whether it's a drop, puddle or ocean full, we all have experienced insecurity. A great read "So long Insecurity, you have been a bad friend" by a great author Beth Moore has been so enlightening. 


Our insecurities derive from our childhood and even our experiences daily that have a major affect on the women we've become. From the way we view ourselves to our unrealistic expectations in relationships.. These insecurities have ruled far too long!


We must first recognize these unhealthy thoughts and emotions that rule our thoughts and poison our spirits. Most of the time we get insecure when we feel threatened, when attention is being taken off of us or when we just plain flat out don't feel significant. We start comparing ourselves to the next woman and either despising her or wanting what she has. WHY? Because our security is in people and things and not in God. 


If we looked to God as our mirror instead of man, we would be more secure. Often times we feel threatened, jealous and insecure because we subconsciously always want it to be about us. Ladies, get over yourselves!!! We need each other, it takes more energy to hate than it does to love. That woman that looks so secure, is probably overwhelmed with hurt on the inside and would love to hear an encouraging word from you. 


Recognize that the enemy is glad that you use all of your time talking ABOUT the next person instead of talking TO them. Take a stand... Insecurity must get out! This state feels so normal because we've dealt with it for so long, but it's not healthy. There's so much freedom out there waiting on us. The anguish you're living in because of your insecurity will be gone the minute you recognize it and get up! You can do it!
