Open Letter to all Chubby Girls

 I used to be called names in secondary school because of my size. Names like Fat Panda, Hot sugar donot, rolling ball amongst others. To be honest, I used to be a very chubby girl from childhood (I still am though 😏😏) and I wasn't tall (I'm still not tall 😂😂) so technically, all those names described my physique. I had low self esteem for years, had zero communication skills, I was what you will tag as a social misfit. When I was to graduate from secondary school, I prayed to God to make me sick so I won't go for my prom and grad not because I didn't want to go but because I felt like I didn't fit in...and my prayer was answered. I fell sick few days to my grad and I didnt go. I hated myself, my body; I never felt like I could do something worth celebrating, I never thought my voice would be heard. Even though I have something to say, I will never utter a word for the fear of being laughed at. Then I entered uni and one faithful day, while studying the Bible, I came across a scripture, "But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people, that ye should show forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvelous light...1Peter 2 vs 9". And everything changed for me. I started seeing myself as a Royalty and that's when the name EMPRESS was birthed. The name was born out of a new self discovery. Gradually Empress came alive and Fat panda died a miserable death.
You are God's Creation. When God finished creating, He looked at everything He created and was satisfied. God is satisfied with the way He created you and you should be satisfied with the way you are created. Love yourself because you are perfect, you are a Spec. The moment you know who you are in Christ, everyone else will see you that way. You alone have the power to accept or reject any negative label. Any label that is not rejected will soon become your Identity.
You are Royalty 👑
