Summertime is one of my favorite seasons. I love the beach and water activities. The world’s standards tell me I must be fit to wear a swimsuit in public. I used to believe I was too large to wear some clothing styles. My body will never be perfect. I have wasted past summer days by worrying about how I look.

Psalm 139:14 is, “Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous – how well I know it.”

Holy Bible, New Living Translation, 2015

When my eyes drift away from Jesus, I concentrate on my body flaws. God created me in His marvelous workmanship. He does not make mistakes or bad creations. The Lord shows me that my value is deeper than what I look like in a swimsuit. He helps me feel comfortable in my skin and brings me joy.
