I know I tend see the clouds to every silver lining, but every time a guy makes some form of media message that says, "Girls, you are beautiful, and loved, and valuable," I can't help but think, "So you've told me. But what are you?"
Are you a gentleman? Do you know you are loved by God despite all your mistakes, despite all your fears, despite where you came from, where you are, and where you're going? Do you know you are more than your swag, more than the company you've kept, more than your girlfriend? And do you conduct yourself and treat others like you deserve respect and dignity? What are you doing to teach your brothers that they have a new chance every day to be holy and righteous? Do you believe that men have an important place in this world? Do you believe that you deserve love, that you can love and be loved, and that you ARE loved?
I'm a girl who knows what it is like to doubt self worth. But teach your brothers to know their true worth and girls might begin to believe in their own.
