Re: I Can't Do This Anymore.
Dearest Friend,
You need to try to get beyond seeing yourself as you think your parents see you, and see yourself as God sees you. You are His precious child. You are perfect in His eyes; "fearfully and wonderfully made". (Psalm 139:14) You turned out exactly the way He intended and, as the old saying goes, "God don't make no junk".
God loves you exactly the way you are. If there is anyone you should try to please, it is Him. Try to focus on His love for you and don't worry about what other people think. The world is much too full of images which stress physical beauty over inner beauty, but remember Christ's words, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33, emphasis added)
God bless you in your struggles.
