It was the devil
The enemy
Who had me soaking in my insecurities
He said I’d be a little prettier if I looked like her…
Said I should change the way people see me
I thought he had my best interest…
Thought he was lookin out for me
he made me feel special; he was talkin real sweet
he said
the world was his puzzle and I was the last missing piece
he said If I fit in then I’d feel more complete
Said the way God created me just wouldn’t do enough for me
I should alter my identity
So
I
Believed
I needed to look more like…
her
them
And I believed him
comparison was the thief that killed my self esteem
And robbed me of the last bit of beauty I saw in me
It destroyed my self perception
he got me
The devil used flattery as a form of deception
he’s a liar
and a thief
stole my confidence right from under me
Really had me believin I needed to look more like
her
the devil tried to twist up Gods words from fearfully and wonderfully made to
Fear what God made
So I could panic
he wanted me to soak in my insecurities
But
Gods word always finds a way to cleanse me
Protects me
Affirm me
