Not sure if any of you have seen this but the whole story is breaking my heart.

Regardless of what someone looks like they are entitled to feel good about themselves. She is allowed to go to prom and feel like a princess. She looks amazing and her dress is the bomb.

I’m so angry at the internet today.

If you don’t have something nice to say, then keep your fucking mouth shut.

This is horrible. The one day where she’s supposed to feel like a princess, the world shits on her.

Fat black girls need the most protection.

This story really broke my heart. This is the one event in a girl's life that she looks forward to. I hate the Internet made the most memorable night a night she wishes never happened. You look beautiful T! 💜💙💚

I didn’t change, I grew up. There’s a difference.

Daily Reading: Proverbs 4:25

Daily Devo: When you think about “distractions,” what comes to mind? Perhaps you think about social media or television. Or maybe you think about certain things that happen at your job or in certain relationships. Big or small, distractions can greatly affect our daily lives and they can also affect our confidence in Christ.

A distraction is anything that prevents you from giving your full attention to something else. Now it’s important to note that distractions aren’t always bad. Perhaps you’re studying for a big test, but your little sibling needs someone to just thirty minutes giving them advice. Or maybe, you were planning on staying at home for the weekend, but you found out that a group of old friends had come to town. These kinds of distractions are not bad, however, there are other distractions, too. There are distractions that don’t just take us away from work or school, but they take our focus away from the things of the Lord. There are the kinds of distractions that get us off course and leave us questioning ourselves and our abilities. These distractions can also come in many different ways. They can come in the form of a toxic relationships or friendships with people who are pursuing the things of the Lord. At times, even church and Christianity-related activities can be a distraction from pursuing God Himself.

Whatever your distractions may be, be mindful of them. Furthermore, always be in a place where you are reevaluating what needs to be reevaluated and eliminating what needs to be eliminated, never letting anything keep you from fixing your eyes on Jesus.

I’ll wait.

People say if you’re “waiting,” you’re just being too picky. It sure seems easy for married people to say this to single people. To them I say, I understand it’s not about finding a perfect person. If that were the case, I’d be single forever- not because I wouldn’t be able to find a perfect person but because I’m NOT a perfect person. I’m flawed, and I hope I don’t find someone who is perfect because they would never be able to put up with me.

I know it’s not about perfection. That’s not what I’m waiting for. I’ll wait for a man that wants to do right in the sight of God. I’ll wait for a man who I trust with my heart and my life. I’ll wait for a man I am proud to stand by. I’ll wait for a man I would go to the ends of the earth with if he felt it were God’s will. I’ll wait for a man who makes me happy not because of anything he could give me or do for me, but simply because of who he is. I’ll wait for a man who can accept my utter imperfection and will love me anyway as I will love him in spite of his. I’ll wait for a man that loves Jesus, that I can look up to, and that I can wake up to for the rest of my life. Anyone who is in love will tell you it exists. It is just not too much to ask for, and I will wait for it.
