We live in a world where everyone tells you that you do everything wrong. They also encourage you (in theory) to be yourself but ONLY in the way THEY want you to be. They also say that "you can't and don't have to keep everyone happy" only to bully you when you follow their own advice because apparently the rule is "you can't keep everyone happy but you have to keep ME happy". We live in a world where, if you don't "fit in" they make sure to let you know about it in the most hostile and abusive way they can (but usually by being "kind". The "kill me with kindness" method as I call it. The best method of undetected abuse).
If you experience the above and still believe in yourself KEEP BELIEVING.
If you are a Christian and experience the above and still believe that God is not like them, NEVER LET ANYONE OR ANYTHING CHANGE YOUR MIND.
If you experience the above but struggle to fight intrusive thoughts which try to persuade you that you are indeed a defective product who should start acting "normal", KEEP FIGHTING. YOU CAN DO THIS.
If you experience the above and this made you think that God is also a capricious abuser, remember that YOU ARE HIS ONE OF A KIND WORK OF ART (Ephesians 2:10). If you also look throughout the Bible, you will see that He used the "defective products" of this world for His glory and not the most "socially acceptable" ones.
KEEP FIGHTING.
KEEP BELIEVING.
