Our value does not come from our looks, accomplishments, abilities, or past history. Our value can not be judged or granted by any person or group. Our limitless value is based on the fact that God, the creator of the universe, of everything seen and unseen, created us in his own image! To anyone with low self-esteem: Never believe the lie that you are not valuable. God demonstrated his love for you, by sending Jesus his son to die for you, so that you could be together with God for eternity. That's how valuable you are!
it's hard to see God in a world where you have not seen love from a human. since I was 6 I have asked God for just one person to love me. but people come and go out of your life and it only depends on how you benefit them. even people who say they are Christian. I am a beautiful but as a Christian who doesn't want to use my looks to have things in this world. I end up with nobody. it's so hard to see God's love. this is why the second greatest commandment is to love others
I've struggled with low self esteem growing up. I didn't find myself to be pretty and I also couldn't look at myself in the mirror at one point. Now I'm slowly regaining myself esteem back because I'm telling myself the way how God sees me daily when I wake up then before I go to sleep. I have to do it constantly now because renewing our minds is a never ending thing. I've learned to put my trust and my issues to Christ and my worth comes through Him and not of this world. Thank you Heather for this message!
Hallelujah !! Wow be wonderfully blessed Sister in Christ. I'm a guy and just read your comment, which has brought me back to the action of renewing our minds daily. 😁 thank you.
satan was the most beautiful angel God ever created. out of this beauty and perfection he became too prideful which caused his downfall. But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the LORD sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the LORD looks on the heart.” Samuel 16:7. Beauty truly lies within the heart, that's the word of God and the word of God cannot be broken, or else God would of made Jesus Christ a supermodel and there's no indication in the bible that he was. He is however a supermodel of pure love and that trumps all including low self esteem. Seek him. .
"For He grew up before Him like a tender shoot, And like a root out of parched ground; He has no stately form or majesty That we should look upon Him, Nor appearance that we should be attracted to Him." ~ Isaiah 53:2
Truly, inner beauty outlasts outer beauty. Maybe I'm not beautiful in the eyes of the world, but I believe that I'm beautiful in the eyes of the Lord. And the opinion of God is much important and true than the opinions of this world...
I was... struggling with my self esteem.. I feel so unworth it.. And I wanted to be with Jesus Christ again.. I neglected Him so much.. this helps me to find Him more 😭 thank u......
OMG... Unfortunately, I was that woman!!! I can boldly say God has given me a spirit of love for my sisters that can’t be explained. Again, I was that woman! I couldn’t connect with other women because I didn’t know me. I thought my STUFF defined me as a person. It took a lot of self evaluation, God, friends(my front row), and honesty for me to realize where the disconnect stemmed from. Insecurities are strong holds that will destroy you if you’re not spiritually equipped to overcome it. Strong holds give room for Satan to play with your mind causing you to be angry at the world. It’s such a blessing to overcome those challenges and allow God to use me for his glory. Sisters you can conquer and defeat Satan, it’s going to take work but you can definitely do it.
I am that woman also and I felt the power from this I'm definitely going to change the way I been thinking and acting. We should love our sisters instead of tearing them down. I have to start saying I am wonderfully through my Father Jesus Christ. Instead of me tearing my self down and not caring what nobody else think.
I feel like this message was for me. I'm dealing with hair loss right now and it's been extremely hard. I've been seeking God before this happened but I've really leaning into him and asking him to help me with self-confidence and looking forward.I'm attempting to grow close to him and Christ daily and I can tell that it's happening.
Hi sister you are beautiful inside and out, im a Christian man so I know what im talking about. I do love the lord and this has helped me in my recovery of depression anxiety and low self esteem. Keep up the good work dear sister and we will have a chat one day in glory about the goodness of God.
I really needed this. I am struggling with social anxiety and deep insercurties over stupid flaws that I have. I really pray that I can over come these things. It feels like I'm in prison chained up mentally and I'm tired of feeling like that.... But thank you for this video :). I really do appreciate it
Amen Kellie!! you couldnt say it better!! its so important to develop ourselves as individuals! I have shared how to build yourself in one of my videos and it has helped me so much. The Lord will surely help us on this :))
I just know from a person who WAS severely depressed, suicidal and suffered very badly with low self esteem how much it meant for me and how much it helped me to see someone who was very confident and had good self esteem who didn't wear make up and didnt have long hair. the longest l thought I had to get up early to do my makeup and hair to feel good about myself when I couldn't even get up to make myself something to eat or at least wash. I just know first hand if I would've been in that same place I was before and just seen the title of the video and seen her I would've been discouraged from watching this. I truly believe in the power in the word of God and Holy Spirit but the place I was in I would've been hard hearted toward this word.
Was anyone else EXTRA excited when they say Heather had posted three new videos?! It feels like such a treat! All of the videos are convicting in such a good way!
I love when i see new videos on my feed from Heather :)) She was one of those that inspire me to start sharing and encouraging other young ladies through my videos!! so amazing!
Ohhhhhhhhhh Heather!!! I definitely understand because I went all of my school years without a guy asking me out!!! It put a huge dent in my self esteem!!! But once I embraced who I am in Christ.....I started to realize I don't need a man's validation!!!
Amen! Gone are the days where we look to people or beauty magazines for validation and definitions of beauty. There is nothing more beautiful than God and His love for us which dwells on the inside of us all. Through Jesus we are enough :D xx
I have this same testimony where I was awkward in middle school too. I had the Steve Uriel string on the back of my glasses and everything! 😂 But as I got older I started to gain confidence when I got contacts and later at age 18 when I got baptized God have me renewed confidence! I even stopped wearing make up for a year and grew my eyebrows and (but still tweezed them) I just still felt beautiful because God helped me. God showed me that even though I’m more attractive now as a young adult..he allowed me to see other ways I can beautiful through my CHARACTER. The heart of Christ within shines bright and a lot of people have told me that they love how cute I am but most importantly they love how my heart takes care of others and how I am considerate and thoughtful. There’s a scripture that says what is of a great price on the sight of God is a meek and quiet spirit. To be humble and not high minded! Just confident not cocky lol. God bless you all!
Thank you for your message...I got diagnosed with Bipolar 1 and had to take medical leave from nursing school...Now I don’t have the money to go back because I maxed out on my federal student loans...also I have issues with my job and I’m just at a point where I hit rock bottom again...after going through so much in my 20s now I’m 32...my passion for nursing I believed is a calling from God but I believe it’s low self esteem and me not being close enough to God is what hinders me...I may be on medication for the rest of my life but I know I must overcome my self doubts and my doubts in Jesus Christ
Preach sis teach our sisters this is so awesome some girls dont have mothers that teach this or older sister and its so awesome that you are sharing your wisdom
I can relate to her with high school. I went to a private school and was the only Black girl in my graduating class. I was so insecure and went to prom alone. Now that I'm way older and I am called beautiful that insecurity still lingers of not feeling good enough and I carry it with me everywhere and I never talk to God about it. I guess it's time to have a heart to heart with God about this. Thank you for this video.
always know what God saids about you, I am the Apple of Gods eye, i am more then a conquer, I am the head and not the tail, his word is all I go by now, no one can tell me nothing else because God has already laid it out for me.
hi Heather. i'm sixteen years old and my confidence is at 0% and i am tryin to learn how to accept myself. so many ppl come to me and tell me um beautiful bt tht sounds strange to my ears. thank u for yo video. it helped me a lot. now i know tht i am beautiful through Christ.
Thank you so much I dealt with low self esteem issues all through junior high and highschool. I was born and raised in the church and thought I knew who I was. But these years of your life can make you look at yourself differently and start molding you into who you’re going to be. I was so focused on what girls were saying and my cheerleading team was saying about me. That I stopped paying attention to The Lord. I was in church helping direct the childrens choir at 16 and going to Bible study and church on Sundays but it wasn’t helping. I got deeper and deeper into depression and fear had me bound in not playing an instrument that I love. An instrument I had played since I was 8 I stopped playing at 14. Throughout my highschool years I had some physical problems happen as well and they started contributing to the depression. The depression became so bad that I didn’t want to be here on earth any more I didn’t think anyone loved me I didn’t love myself I was taking in what others thought of me and started believing it. I started believing that the world would be better off without me and my family wouldn’t care if I left. I would try and smile fronting even though I knew I wasn’t doing well. Since a lot of friends knew that I was into church and things they would come to me for help and advice. I would try and give them advice just saying to pray and ask God about it not admitting that I’m having a hard time myself not admitting that I need to pray too. It was almost as if I was looking in a mirror speaking to myself about it. But on the other hand I wasn’t even praying myself. I had given up on Jesus and on everything else. I felt that if God can’t do it then no one can. And when I was at my lowest I heard God say I will never leave Nor forsake you! And I started crying and went down in prayer. Throughout senior year I was still having those kind of thoughts every so often. Then second semester of senior year 2020, the Lord led me in prayer again about this stuff. And now again in 2022 I had been feeling low self esteem and had to start rebuking it and truly deeply getting into the word of God and am still doing it as a 19 year old young lady and trying to still find myself in Christ Jesus. This video really helped me and gave me encouragement. I am learning how to speak positivity over myself and not letting negative thoughts cloud my mind. So thank you and I Thank The Lord for sending this message through you for young women and women going through this to hear!!! ❤️❤️❤️
My favorite part: "I don't feel good about myself--I don't think I'm good enough" God: "No, get your hope back in me and pick up a carrot instead of a donut!" LOL YAS, Heather! Amen, Amen! God is so good--I needed to hear that! Great Word!
Thank you heather for sharing your story because, I was in a unhappy place of my life. But today, I will no longer feel that way about myself from this day forward.
I've been searching the internet endlessly for an answer on how to be more confident. I also tried to find the answer in scripture but I guess God led me here instead: confidence comes from God. In Christ alone my Hope is found. I knew it already but because my relationship with Christ has recently been on and off (in other words, I need to learn to say NO to the devil because I've been spending more time doing his work than the Lords recently), I somehow forgot where my peace and confidence came from. I forgot God was so powerful and loving. I forgot about His promises and His plan for me. I feel I can now walk in to work on Monday morning with my head held high for God. Normally I walk in there with thoughts of myself... Is my hair ok, what shall I say to my co worker, how can I start a conversation etc. etc. And always I fail. People sense I'm insecure and they tend to leave me alone. But I am not alone, for God is with me. I can't wait for Monday, I'm going to walk in there boldly for Christ and not look back ;) Thanks girl x
I'm battling with myself about my insecurities right now! I struggle with self image like I'm to skinny and the fact that I'm an A cup. I pray I get over these things and realize that God made me perfectly.
I used to be skinny bf. Go do some health check...eg scanning for fibroids, check for anaemia Infact do a total health check. I did n found a health issue. Once I took care of it, then my body returned to normal
I really needed this. I'm 30 ( which I know is still young) and it's hard not to compare how I look now to how I looked in teens or twenties. It's not that I've aged horribly already but I do look differnt as is normal! I've struggled my whole life finding worth in my looks so aging is something the Lord needs to help me with.
thank you so much Heather!! I very much so needed that. I've been the girl whos been single for 23 years and felt like I was inadequate because of it but Im found in Him, not in relationships. This was amazing. Love you and God bless you and your family
Very intelligent women. You are really helping a lot of women who have low self esteem thank you. Finding Jesus for me is the best thing that has ever happened. Keep doing Gods work.
Wow! How did I randomly find myself listening to this video at 2 am only realising midway through the video that you're the author to the book I'm currently reading 'Dusty Crowns'. You're a blessing. Thank you Heather
Im going to be honest with you, before I clicked on your video I was deciding to click on another. I thought " man shes pretty and lightskin, what can she tell me?" but after watching halfway through I found we had so many similarities. This video really blessed me and I never want to judge people before knowing their heart again.
I am not jealous of other females. I just don't trust them and every time I try they remind why I don't trust them. no one has any morals or values any more. do you know how many times my husband has been approached by women from our church... I have just learned most have no values. even at my best there is better. the key is to not put your value in man, but in Christ. im ok to be alone the rest of my life. looking a certain way, taking care of yourself, fat, skinny, black or white didn't matter. beauty is in Christ
Amen!!!!!! This is awesome! I needed this today! I’m a car accident survivor and have been focusing on getting rid of my negative self talk. True beauty that is really attractive is truly a meek and quiet spirit.💜💜💜💜
Thank you Heather. You really spoke to me tonight. Been feeling so low on my self confidence lately and it's because my relationship with The Lord has diminished a little. I'm going to get my relationship with Him right again and I know I'll start feeling better inside-out, after I remind myself of who I am in Christ.
I needed to see this video. I've been struggling with self esteem issues since middle school. It has gotten much better over the years, but I'm still struggling with it. I'm a rising junior in college, and I've noticed that my parents don't seem to care about my accomplishments anymore. I wanted a congratulates because this semester was beyond difficult for me, and my mother looked at me like she didn't give a damn. At that moment, I knew that 1. I needed to find myself in God, 2. Don't seek praise from anyone and 3. Congratulate myself. Thank you for this video!
Rooted! Planted! Never Shaken! God is so good Heather! Thank you for encouraging me, confidence in the Lord is what I have been working on lately! Mind, Body and Spirit, I'm praying many are blessed by this video just as I was! You are greatly inspiring❤️
I'm not new to God I have known him for my whole life and I've accepted him to be in my life but lately I've been struggling with trusting him I have been praying and spending time with him but he still feels so far away😔
Needed that reminder 💕. In this social media era it's hard to not compare. It's inspiring to see women like you who know their worth through Christ, it pushes us who are on our journey to seek to know Him better.
guys go through this too i swear its like all a woman has to do is look Good and the world is hers there are so many expectations that the world has for a man.
Ms Heather Lindsey - thank you so much for the 3 most recent videos you've posted -so timely and relevant, you have no idea! Thank you for being instrumental to the Holy Spirit! Highest honour and praise to God for speaking to me through you.. Much love from London xx
Hey Marie :) I also feel blessed by her video. The Lord is sure using her to minister to me and You! she might not know us but We are touched by the king through her !! so my dear just continue to be closer to Christ, He will never leave you and will always bring people your way to bless you :D much love!
Hi Silvia, Thank you so much for your beautiful message -this made my heart smile :) Isn't it amazing that although we are strangers we are sisters in Christ encouraging each other and showing love! I love this! God bless you my sister. Much love to you too xxx
i watch your videos while i clean the house, its so motivating to make sure my household is looking sharp and for myself too. to walk out the door dressed and ready to go. God bless you Heather. God speaks through you for us ladies to LISTEN and have The Lord in every area of our lives.
WOW! That 1st Peter funny I had it highlighted in the book but not in my heart! This helped so much remind me how God sees me. I to struggled with low self esteem for a while! LOVE IT THANKS!
I love you heather thank yo for sharing your story and reminding us of Finding ourselves through christ in this world of social media and cosmetic surgery. God bless you love
Awesome beautiful video. You expressed this video in a way where it was not solely based on external features, but more about internal features. All I could see was your pure and compassion heart. Thanks for letting God use you !
It's common for people to not be asked out at their high school (points to self). I went to a mostly Asian school, so I guess we were the minority, but still. It's high school. There are billions of people in the world. It happens. I really dislike when people think that's abnormal. It's normal.
oh wow!! that seems awesome dear!! its funny because i also just felt to make a video on this topic some weeks ago! the Lord sure is leading and connecting us!!

Our value does not come from our looks, accomplishments, abilities, or past history. Our value can not be judged or granted by any person or group. Our limitless value is based on the fact that God, the creator of the universe, of everything seen and unseen, created us in his own image!

Yes, yes, yes!! AMEN!! Such truth!
thank you God bless you for this reminder. @Heather thank you for your videos and help on becoming closer to Jesus. God bless you and your family !
it's hard to see God in a world where you have not seen love from a human. since I was 6 I have asked God for just one person to love me. but people come and go out of your life and it only depends on how you benefit them. even people who say they are Christian. I am a beautiful but as a Christian who doesn't want to use my looks to have things in this world. I end up with nobody. it's so hard to see God's love. this is why the second greatest commandment is to love others
Comcal Ministries well all that matters is that jesus loves you< and if you feel lonely pray! Pray! Pray! For a realtionship breakthrough

I got deeper and deeper into depression and fear had me bound in not playing an instrument that I love. An instrument I had played since I was 8 I stopped playing at 14. Throughout my highschool years I had some physical problems happen as well and they started contributing to the depression. The depression became so bad that I didn’t want to be here on earth any more I didn’t think anyone loved me I didn’t love myself I was taking in what others thought of me and started believing it. I started believing that the world would be better off without me and my family wouldn’t care if I left. I would try and smile fronting even though I knew I wasn’t doing well. Since a lot of friends knew that I was into church and things they would come to me for help and advice. I would try and give them advice just saying to pray and ask God about it not admitting that I’m having a hard time myself not admitting that I need to pray too. It was almost as if I was looking in a mirror speaking to myself about it. But on the other hand I wasn’t even praying myself. I had given up on Jesus and on everything else. I felt that if God can’t do it then no one can. And when I was at my lowest I heard God say I will never leave Nor forsake you! And I started crying and went down in prayer. Throughout senior year I was still having those kind of thoughts every so often. Then second semester of senior year 2020, the Lord led me in prayer again about this stuff. And now again in 2022 I had been feeling low self esteem and had to start rebuking it and truly deeply getting into the word of God and am still doing it as a 19 year old young lady and trying to still find myself in Christ Jesus. This video really helped me and gave me encouragement. I am learning how to speak positivity over myself and not letting negative thoughts cloud my mind. So thank you and I Thank The Lord for sending this message through you for young women and women going through this to hear!!! ❤️❤️❤️
My favorite part: "I don't feel good about myself--I don't think I'm good enough"
God: "No, get your hope back in me and pick up a carrot instead of a donut!"
LOL YAS, Heather! Amen, Amen! God is so good--I needed to hear that! Great Word!
Thank you heather for sharing your story because, I was in a unhappy place of my life. But today, I will no longer feel that way about myself from this day forward.
I've been searching the internet endlessly for an answer on how to be more confident.
I also tried to find the answer in scripture but I guess God led me here instead: confidence comes from God.
In Christ alone my Hope is found.
I knew it already but because my relationship with Christ has recently been on and off (in other words, I need to learn to say NO to the devil because I've been spending more time doing his work than the Lords recently), I somehow forgot where my peace and confidence came from. I forgot God was so powerful and loving. I forgot about His promises and His plan for me.
I feel I can now walk in to work on Monday morning with my head held high for God.
Normally I walk in there with thoughts of myself... Is my hair ok, what shall I say to my co worker, how can I start a conversation etc. etc. And always I fail.
People sense I'm insecure and they tend to leave me alone.
But I am not alone, for God is with me.
I can't wait for Monday, I'm going to walk in there boldly for Christ and not look back ;)
Thanks girl x
That was awesome, greatly needed, and completely inspiring!
Thank you Lord for leading me to this channel!
This was just everything Heather, this is exactly what our generation needs right now, more God and less Self!!!
I know this video is old but this video has brought me so much peace tonight. Thank you so much
I'm battling with myself about my insecurities right now! I struggle with self image like I'm to skinny and the fact that I'm an A cup. I pray I get over these things and realize that God made me perfectly.
I used to be skinny bf. Go do some health check...eg scanning for fibroids, check for anaemia
Infact do a total health check. I did n found a health issue. Once I took care of it, then my body returned to normal
I really needed this. I'm 30 ( which I know is still young) and it's hard not to compare how I look now to how I looked in teens or twenties. It's not that I've aged horribly already but I do look differnt as is normal! I've struggled my whole life finding worth in my looks so aging is something the Lord needs to help me with.
Self esteem is not about the “outside”. It’s actually very much the opposite.
thank you so much Heather!! I very much so needed that. I've been the girl whos been single for 23 years and felt like I was inadequate because of it but Im found in Him, not in relationships. This was amazing. Love you and God bless you and your family
This was very up leftwing and true. I'm learning to love me God's creation. Fearfully and wonderfully made.
Very intelligent women. You are really helping a lot of women who have low self esteem thank you. Finding Jesus for me is the best thing that has ever happened. Keep doing Gods work.
Struggling low esteem for years, this really helps me alot! God bless you always. :)
Especially hard as a woman. Well needed talk
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!! " at age 20 everything is going down hill, sorry" . Thank you for your help. Tough love.
Wow! How did I randomly find myself listening to this video at 2 am only realising midway through the video that you're the author to the book I'm currently reading 'Dusty Crowns'. You're a blessing. Thank you Heather
I’m not a perfect person, and Jesus died for me because of that! Amen! I pray that this stronghold be released from us by the blood of Jesus!
My self esteem is living for the Lord 🙌🏼
Heather, you are beautiful. From the inside out, you are a woman that fears the Lord.
You are enough through Jesus Christ Our Savior!
😳guilty! I spend time with God but not enough.
Hey, it starts somewhere! 😊 At least you're spending time with Him! And the more you do, the more you will want to
thats so true, thank you and God bless
Speak Heather!! Speakkk🙌🏾🗣🗣🗣
I love this message!!! God bless us women
Im going to be honest with you, before I clicked on your video I was deciding to click on another. I thought " man shes pretty and lightskin, what can she tell me?" but after watching halfway through I found we had so many similarities. This video really blessed me and I never want to judge people before knowing their heart again.
I am not jealous of other females. I just don't trust them and every time I try they remind why I don't trust them. no one has any morals or values any more. do you know how many times my husband has been approached by women from our church... I have just learned most have no values. even at my best there is better. the key is to not put your value in man, but in Christ. im ok to be alone the rest of my life. looking a certain way, taking care of yourself, fat, skinny, black or white didn't matter. beauty is in Christ
thank you for this. its so hard .. especially in this self absorbed world that we live in.
This title alone!! God is so amazing. I just prayed this prayer today and he using you through RUclips to help me!
Thank you sister Heather. This means a lot.
Amen, God bless you and anyone else reading this! This video really encouraged me to treat myself better and to spend more time with God.
I really love your positive energy and the fact that you are saying to get over insecurity through Christ ❤️ makes me want to really try it seriously
Amen!!!!!! This is awesome! I needed this today! I’m a car accident survivor and have been focusing on getting rid of my negative self talk. True beauty that is really attractive is truly a meek and quiet spirit.💜💜💜💜
Heather thank you so much for telling your story!!!!!
Discovering this video nearly 3 years after you published it, but I'm incredibly thankful for this! Right to the heart. Thanks for all you do!
Thank you so much Heather for this video. This is so encouraging!
Thank you Heather. You really spoke to me tonight. Been feeling so low on my self confidence lately and it's because my relationship with The Lord has diminished a little. I'm going to get my relationship with Him right again and I know I'll start feeling better inside-out, after I remind myself of who I am in Christ.
OMG!! I'm an 18 yr old dealing with a couple of insecurities right now and listening to this just lifted my spirits. God bless you!😊🙏

"Honey I don't care" LOL😂 Heather out here speaking FACTS.
I’m crying while watching this.. I struggle with self esteem and I just don’t feel good enough. Thank you for your message
It’s hard for a man that has only had bad relationships and never had a woman that loved them forever and accepts them the way they are
I needed to see this video. I've been struggling with self esteem issues since middle school. It has gotten much better over the years, but I'm still struggling with it. I'm a rising junior in college, and I've noticed that my parents don't seem to care about my accomplishments anymore. I wanted a congratulates because this semester was beyond difficult for me, and my mother looked at me like she didn't give a damn. At that moment, I knew that 1. I needed to find myself in God, 2. Don't seek praise from anyone and 3. Congratulate myself. Thank you for this video!
Thank you so much for this! Stay blessed!
Rooted! Planted! Never Shaken! God is so good Heather! Thank you for encouraging me, confidence in the Lord is what I have been working on lately! Mind, Body and Spirit, I'm praying many are blessed by this video just as I was! You are greatly inspiring❤️
I'm not new to God I have known him for my whole life and I've accepted him to be in my life but lately I've been struggling with trusting him I have been praying and spending time with him but he still feels so far away😔
Beautiful queen thank you for the knowledge God bless you
Needed that reminder 💕. In this social media era it's hard to not compare. It's inspiring to see women like you who know their worth through Christ, it pushes us who are on our journey to seek to know Him better.
You are so blessed, may God bless you more.
guys go through this too i swear its like all a woman has to do is look Good and the world is hers there are so many expectations that the world has for a man.
Ms Heather Lindsey - thank you so much for the 3 most recent videos you've posted -so timely and relevant, you have no idea! Thank you for being instrumental to the Holy Spirit!
Highest honour and praise to God for speaking to me through you..
Much love from London xx

Thank God for Jesus CHRIST.
Thank you for this wonderful video
Thanks this was a great reminder. And I will be 40 soon and I feel more beautiful than ever.
Awesome beautiful video. You expressed this video in a way where it was not solely based on external features, but more about internal features. All I could see was your pure and compassion heart.
Thanks for letting God use you !
It's common for people to not be asked out at their high school (points to self). I went to a mostly Asian school, so I guess we were the minority, but still. It's high school. There are billions of people in the world. It happens. I really dislike when people think that's abnormal. It's normal.
BecomingTia just because something is normal, doesn’t mean it’s right.
i also was not asked out by guys till last year in oct. and p.s. i am about to graduate college.
such a great video! i just wrote a blog on this! this is the 3rd time this week i heard a message on self-esteem! 😃
oh wow!! that seems awesome dear!! its funny because i also just felt to make a video on this topic some weeks ago! the Lord sure is leading and connecting us!!
+Silvia Dwomoh nice! did you post it yet? would love to check it out! God is awesome😇😁
+ImJacquet1 yep I already made the video on how to build your confidence and knowing who you are as a young Lady!!
