On a real note, who’s struggling with physical insecurities? I have been!! And this week I read 1 Samuel 10-11 and something jumped out to me that never has before. The noting of Saul’s physical appearance. As I was studying this, I had a revelation about my own physical appearance. I was designed, completely, by God. Every inch. Every part I like and don’t like. And God will can use physical insecurities for His purpose! And He can use them to further the Kingdom of God!! How cool! I hope this perspective shift helps you give the Lord your physical insecurities and helps you even talk more about them. In hopes that more conversations, can lead to more people being set free from the lies they are believing about themselves!

I pray this nontypical physical insecurity conversation helps remind you that you were created purposely to further the Kingdom of God. EXACTLY AS YOU ARE!!

** Trigger warning: we talk about eating disorders in this episode. 

On this episode of our sleepover series, MM invites her friend Abby Dawson on to share her story. Abby shares her personal walk through an eating disorder and struggle with body image and how her community played a huge role in helping her get the care she needed.

A lot of times with disordered eating, we hardly realize that our eating is actually disordered. Abby opens up about her experience with this and how you can let a loved one in or how you can be the loved one to help. She establishes the importance of distinguishing between parental ways to help and how a friend can help. Abby emphasizes how you can have the conversation with a loved one you care about but not become accusatory. They also share about the importance of interceding on the person’s behalf who may be struggling. 

We hope that this conversation reminds you that you are not alone and that we are In This Together. And we hope that it helps you gain the courage to speak up about any struggles you may be facing. 

Speaking of speaking up, we encourage you to reach out to a parent/mentor/a friend/the local church/Christian counselor if this is something you are struggling with and if you want to continue the conversation Abby’s and the In This Together instagram is linked here and would love to help you if you need anything at all! 

Abby's Instagram DMs are open!
