I have had this feeling weighing heavily on my heart recently and I really want to jump out and tell every single girl: when you are put down by people that you care about, have taken a verbal beating by a boyfriend about how you look, or have been criticized about what you like or what you stand for... GOD SEES IT ALL!
God is very heartbroken when He sees what you are going through. You are His child. He created you and He loves you. He loves you too much to leave you where you are at! (That's awesome in my opinion!) God sees you and cries with you. Most of all He gets you when no one else does! You can take comfort in that. He knows what you are desperate for and He is desperate as well for something that is much more important... He is desperate to take care of you and be your Father, and have an intimate relationship with you. He wants you to turn to Him in every situation, problem, victory, and sorrow time(s). The reason that He WANTS this between you and Him is simple--- HE LOVES YOU!
He wants to intervene every corner of your life. He promises to ruin your life in the most beautiful way. Not to scare you or anything, He wants to show you the places where only HE can take you. When you ask Christ into your heart, you receive all of Him. When that happens He is ready to make changes in you and through you.
You don't want your communication with Him to stop right there. You can make Him your best friend right from the start. When you make that decision, He immediately puts a crown on your head and heart only He can see; He makes you his royal princess! He is so excited to do what He has planned for your life. He will take care of you and He promises that. In the Bible God says in Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you...plans to prosper and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future..." When your relationship grows with God by reading the Bible and praying and being quiet so you can hear Him speak to your spirit, He will help you make the right choice to cut toxic relationships and friendships out of your life. He has healthy people in His plan for your life that will build you up, not break you down! (Can you imagine all the happiness that is in store, just for YOU?!)

I can tell you from my experience that it is extremely hard! But what I can reveal to you is that God has not failed me once with peace that follows with cutting toxic relationships out of my life. I was knocked down, pushed around, and dragged through a lot of people's insecurities that actually attached themselves to me; even after I let those people go. I found out that I still struggled with a lot of insecurities that other people had when I met them that I didn't have before. It hurts at first, but through faith of one drop of blood from the hole in His hand was enough to make me stand up and do what was right for my relationship with God. I knew I had to do it after God started working in me. I started to not want to be around people that didn't care about themselves and talked down about every person that cam up in a conversation. I felt so good when I made the decision to leave my past friends in my past and WITH my past; I went full force and headstrong to change my future with full trust that God would provide healthier people to enter my life that cared about themselves and they let Christ's love shine through them.
He showed me a side of Him I was not familiar with when I completely surrendered and repented for not looking at Him but at the world for satisfaction. He immediately surrounded me with mercy, grace, and love! I will never go back to the people that emotionally beat me senseless. God gave me that confidence and change of heart because I simply trusted in His salvation, protection, and love for me. No one will ever take that away from me...or you. That, my friend, makes us ANYTHING but plain!
God wants to be your hero, take care of you, and love you. You are, and always will be His little princess; also His beloved daughter. All you have to be is His and all you have to know is that He is just a breath away! He loves you so much, He cannot take His eyes off of you! You are His precious creation. If you let His love overtake your entire being, you will see His hand come up in the most unexpected ways in your life!
