A Great Study Guide by Holly Gerth
Right now I am on the Scarsdale Diet.
Definitely a throwback for the 1980’s! It worked then and I am hoping it will
work now! I am turning 50 next week and
all of a sudden I am feeling a bit old and creaky. Skin looks a little tired,
sleep does not restore like it used to, and even after I apply make up I look
like I need a make over!
When I picked up Holly Gerth’s study guide
and looked at the title I was reminded of the truth that my culture wants me to
forget.
I am amazing BEFORE the diet, the make up,
the botox, the gym, the new shoes and the lash extensions. (not that I have
Botoxed….yet!)
I live in the tension of self-care and
self-critique.
God’s purpose for me comes into clear focus
when my self-awareness level includes the truth that my worth is more than the
sum of my contributions and attributions.
This study guide encouraged me to take a
look at why I do what I do and what it is that I really need to focus on that
will propel me toward the amazing truth that indeed I am already amazing.
Thank you Holly for your candid
encouragement to embrace who God created me to be!
This is a great study guide for anyone
struggling with insecurity issues, unrealistic demands, and over-whelming
feelings of inadequacy….I think that would include all of us!
