We've all felt a little bit insecure at some point in our lives. Personally, I believe it's a stage that we all have to pass through. That period when you've not fully discovered yourself so you let other people define you. For some people, their stage of self discovery is short and for others it takes a very long time. And the later struggle with a terrible feeling of insecurity.
First things first, you put the price tag on yourself. In other words, it's how you present and carry yourself that people are going to address you. No one can intimidate you unless you give them permission to. I struggled with insecurity, but after God showed me his perception of me, I became full of pride. Pride that I was fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14) without a flaw.! The Bible talks so many times about how perfect God has created us.
Psalm 139:14 - I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.
Song of Solomon 4:7 - You are altogether beautiful, my love; there is no flaw in you.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 - Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
So please stop looking down in yourself. Respect yourself. You have been chosen by God. Your body is His temple, He wishes to take over. Give it all to Him and stop worrying. You are created in God's likeness, don't let anybody tell you otherwise. Remember that you are altogether beautiful and there is no flaw in you!
Be blessed.
