God does not want me to cry....

My name is Natalie and I am twenty two years old. As I started to write this, I began to cry! I've typed only a few words and I am already in tears. I know God had created me with courage and strength and love, so why do I give in to lies from the enemy?
I struggle with self image and confidence everyday. I know Jesus loves me. I know God has a large and great plan for my life. Sometimes I realize I have come a far way in terms of confidence, but then I find myself purging again and believing lies. I feel so silly and I know it is wrong to be placing such importance on body image. I know Jesus loves me and I am thankful for finding you on God tube. It reminds me of a lot of things and I am comforted greatly.
I know that I cannot truly lead people towards Jesus until I love myself. So I will continue on a voyage to complete self acceptance and self love. Thank you for putting your self out there. It really does help to listen to others struggles. Thank you so much.
