Everyone wants to be someone else. If you had (insert name here) hair, clothes, nose, car, job, then you would be happy. Why is it that we always want something different or more than what we have?
Each one of us was fearfully and wonderfully made. We were made in His image so do think He would make a mistake?
God made you, to be you, a unique individual with your own gifts, talents and abilities. Yes, you were made like this on purpose and all He wants is for you to be true to who you are in Him and serve Him. He has a plan for your life and if you are busy trying to be someone else, you will never experience the fullness of God in your life. You cannot live someone else’s plan. It will not work.
I know it is hard to look in the mirror and see what God sees. One step at a time and praying for His guidance, you will become comfortable until you finally reach the point that you are happy just being you.
Just like David could not wear Saul’s armor to fight Goliath (1 Samuel 17:38-39), we cannot be anybody, but who God made us to be so be true to you.
