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.

It's been going on since 8th grade. My dad's the one that started it. He started telling me I'm not pretty. He started telling me to lose weight. He started telling me I was stupid and that I won't get anywhere in life. I think he's gotten tired of most of those now. He's moved past that . . moved to telling me that I'm a burden and an inconvenience . . that I'm a cruel and prejudiced person . . that I'm a disappointment. I don't know what I did. My whole life I've tried not to disappoint my parents, but somewhere along the line, I did it anyways. My mom doesn't say much. She just stands there and watches. She'll tell me after it's over that she knows what he says is wrong. But she still just stands there and watches me take it.

It sucks being rejected by your family. :/

Hey kiddo,

Just remember sinners are blinded by satan, That God will never leave you or forsake you - that you can look to what God says about you in Christ. Build your identity on what God says - read Ephesians a few times, Let what God says renew your heart and mind - I am sorry your dad is like this - obviously a poor representation of who God really is as a Father - He seems like a hurting person himself. Pray for your enemies

Whatever is said or done, please do not let that be satan's door to your soul. Remember you are a child of God! These verses should apply to much of what you are experiencing.





Mathew 11-12 "Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.







Acts 16:31 They replied, “ Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved–you and your household.”






Acts 26:17-18 . . . I am sending you to them . . . so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'







Jeremiah 29:11
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”







Psalms 139:13-16 For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.






Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.






1 Timothy 4: 12
Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.






Ephesians 6:11 (NIV)
11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.







1 Peter 4:8 Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.






God Bless you and your family.

Been there, done that!!! It sounds like my family. I did just as you are, I tried to change their minds by being perfect. Won't work. After years and years of tears, trying, wondering why I was so wrong, I woke up to the fact the God created me. Just as I am, I was created to be. No one in the world, parents, friend or foe, has the right to decide you aren't acceptable. I waited until they are all gone but a sister to tell them so, but I told them.

I got a huge dog, a back pack, a tiny tent and a tiny stove and I went on a trail the guide book assured me no one used. When I got out so far I could truly shout I told the world I belonged to God not them and they didn't have the right. I decided not to come home until I had this solidly in my very being. I wish I would have done it before they died.
