A New Devotional from Ellen Wildman
Already Whole
Do you struggle with body image? Do you have a hard time liking what you see in the mirror? It’s one thing to know you’re made in the image of God, but it’s another thing to believe it.
Over the next 90 days, Ellen Wildman will share powerful truths from God’s Word that contradict the lies you’ve been told about your body. You’ll learn to be at home in your body and appreciate what it does for you and how it makes you unique. You can stop comparing yourself to others and seeing your body as an ongoing fix-it project, and instead see it as something handcrafted and beautifully complex—just the way you are.
Be reminded of where your worth and value come from, and where you can find an unshakable confidence. It’s time to stop seeing your body as the enemy and instead start seeing it the way God sees you.

Quotes
-
“God didn’t create a skinnier or fitter or more beautiful version of you waiting to be unleashed when you just get it together. He created you in His image in the here and now.”
-
“It’s better to be in a larger body as you pursue wholeness in Christ than to shame and contain yourself into a more societally acceptable size.”
-
“The goal isn’t perfection. It’s communion with the One who already calls you His beloved.”
-
“Jesus didn’t die for a future, better version of you. He gave His life for you now—flaws, doubts, and all.”
-
“You were never meant to shrink to fit. You were made to reflect God's fullness, not fit into someone else's frame.”
-
“As one who is fearfully and wonderfully made, I am able to face each day and show up as I am. God is always with me.”
