This is a fantastic song about how God created you with love and care. Everytime you look into a mirror and criticize all of your faults, you're wrong. The mirror lies. Jesus loves and values you. He has a special purpose, just for you. You are incredibly beautiful, and God can heal you, change your heart, and give you his eyes (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQwRgXUAk5s) so you can see just how awesome you are. God loves you!
Also, this body is just a shell. It will be shed when you go to Heaven, and God will have a new body all ready for you. To read more about this in the Bible, go to 1 Corinthians 5:1-10. If you want to see a video of just how fake the media is, and how they create these images to look perfect, check out the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYhCn0jf46U It's a video sponsored by Dove to show how our perception of beauty is so distorted.

Never insult another person or tell them that they're ugly or fat. They are made in the image of God, as are you. You are a wonderful creation. Here's a website about the battle of a little girl named Juliana Wetmore, who is truly beautiful: http://julianawetmore.net/index.php
I'll be praying for all of you. If you have any specific requests, feel free to put them in the comments.
Here are the lyrics to "More Beautiful You" by Jonny Diaz:
Little girl fourteen flipping through a magazine
Says she wants to look that way
But her hair isn't straight her body isn't fake
And she's always felt overweight
Well little girl fourteen I wish that you could see
That beauty is within your heart
And you were made with such care your skin your body and your hair
Are perfect just the way they are
[Chorus]
There could never be a more beautiful you
Don't buy the lies disguises and hoops they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you
Little girl twenty-one the things that you've already done
Anything to get ahead
And you say you've got a man but he's got another plan
Only wants what you will do instead
Well little girl twenty-one you never thought that this would come
You starve yourself to play the part
But I can promise you there's a man whose love is true
And he'll treat you like the jewel you are
[chorus]
So turn around you're not too far
To back away be who you are
To change your path go another way
It's not too late you can be saved
If you feel depressed with past regrets
The shameful nights hope to forget
Can disappear they can all be washed away
By the one who's strong can right your wrongs
Can rid your fears dry all your tears
And change the way you look at this big world
He will take your dark distorted view
And with His light He will show you truth
And again you'll see through the eyes of a little girl
[chorus]
Says she wants to look that way
But her hair isn't straight her body isn't fake
And she's always felt overweight
Well little girl fourteen I wish that you could see
That beauty is within your heart
And you were made with such care your skin your body and your hair
Are perfect just the way they are
[Chorus]
There could never be a more beautiful you
Don't buy the lies disguises and hoops they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you
Little girl twenty-one the things that you've already done
Anything to get ahead
And you say you've got a man but he's got another plan
Only wants what you will do instead
Well little girl twenty-one you never thought that this would come
You starve yourself to play the part
But I can promise you there's a man whose love is true
And he'll treat you like the jewel you are
[chorus]
So turn around you're not too far
To back away be who you are
To change your path go another way
It's not too late you can be saved
If you feel depressed with past regrets
The shameful nights hope to forget
Can disappear they can all be washed away
By the one who's strong can right your wrongs
Can rid your fears dry all your tears
And change the way you look at this big world
He will take your dark distorted view
And with His light He will show you truth
And again you'll see through the eyes of a little girl
[chorus]

Thanks for reading!
Forever praying + loving,

P.S. Don't forget how beautiful you are. If you want, write something on a notecard and put it next to the mirror to remind you.
