Weight...

So as everyone probably knows...weight mostly matters to everyone. People not only judge others but them self on what they look. I blieve that kids are mostly impacted by it the most. Girls especially take this to heart. They see women in the media and other teen stars in the media and wish they could look like them. Now it's ok that they look at them as role models, but I believe they aren't as much looking at them like they are role models but as someone to look like. The media says that be skinny is beautiful or eating to much makes you gross. This is the wrong idea that girls or anyone should have. The internet, t.v., and even people in school make it seem like you have to look a certain way to be accepted my the world.

However, everyone is totally wrong. We are all created in God's image. No person is ugly and their especially not ugly because they are not a particular weight. I believe that parents really need to sit down with their children and reassure and reiterate to them that size doesn't make you a beautiful person. It is your heart and they way you treat people that make you beautiful. As Christians we need to realize that it is not gonna matter what we look like; when we get to heaven God is going to look at what kind of face you had or what you weighed. He is going to look at what are heart was like. Churches as well need to to talk to their youth groups and let them that they don't need to follow the worlds comformaties but go by what God says. Since the world goes by looks and kids do deal with issues like these, they should have internet sites that are helpful to kids and let them know they are beautiful the way the are. Dont let technology tell you, your not beautfiul or cool enough. God is in control!
