This may come as a surprise to most of you, but… I love grocery shopping. Well, actually wait.  Let me rephrase that.  I love food. In all seriousness though, I love getting to stroll through the aisles of Publix while basking in the vastness of…

Many of you may not know this about me, but I used to HATE my body. . I hated the acne on my face, the small dark hairs on my upper lip, the bulk of the muscles in my arms, and the curves of my butt and thighs when I wore a pair of tight jeans. I hated all of it. The color of my eyes, the freckles on my nose, the size of my hands, and the depth of my voice. . It’s taken me years of healing and learning and forgiving and growing to finally appreciate the body I was born into - and all that it can do. . These curvy legs have captained soccer teams and climbed mountains. These strong shoulders have carried kiddos as they’ve laughed and school backpacks filled with books. This voice has taught and declared truth in over 7 countries. These hands have hugged the hurting and wiped the tears of the broken. These eyes have witnessed the beauty of creation and the beautiful people in it. These teeth have chewed delicious food and smiled before strangers. And these feet have taken me to foreign lands and back again. . I’m finally beginning to understand that my body is a gift. It’s filled with scars, moles, stretch marks, and metal implants, but it’s mine - and there’s no body on earth like it. It’s strong, fierce, unique, beautiful, and capable of OH SO MANY things. . I can’t undo the years of disordered eating or the years of hating who I saw in the mirror, but I can begin to truly celebrate who God created me to be - and I can strive to love, cherish, and take care of her every single day. . And while I continue to heal on this lifelong journey - I hope and pray that I just might be able to help you heal too. . ❤️ . #lovethyself #fearfullyandwonderfullymade #9roundstrong 📸: @jeffgrettler
