Bring 'em Out

Y'all, we are in the dog days of summer! And while survival is at the forefront in this heat, I'm still battling with my insecurities when it comes to exposing my body.

Sure, my billions of freckles have darkened and merged to give off the illusion of a summer tan. And I've worked hard to still incorporate workouts and a healthy diet (with a few ice creams thrown in) despite the craziness of Summer. But my struggles go way back and run real deep.

I have a new mindset (gracious I've tried it all) to encourage me to just bring my body out, specifically my legs.

Rather than thinking "I wish I could wear these shorts/mini skirt/swimsuit BUT ______"

I've cut the 'but' out and replaced it with 'Therefore'

I am a child of God therefore I am made in his image and can present myself proudly.

I have strong healthy legs therefore I can show them confidently.

This applies not just to what you wear but in so many areas of our lives.

We all have been blessed with the presence, provision and protection of God therefore we have Him to help us bring out our talents, heart and bodies so that others can be blessed by seeing, hearing and knowing Jesus through us!

FACT: The best swimsuit, is the one you wear!

Put it on - show up - Make memories!

Note: this post was inspired by the book The Best Yes. I just finished it alongside my dear Friend and I highly recommend it!

You are Beautiful Therefore You can dress Beautifully
