Confidence

Today, while watching my favorite morning news show, I listened as Megan Fox described her insecurities to Matt Lauer.

Megan starred in both Transformers movies (the second of which I loathed).

She spoke about how hard it is trying to make people happy and how living in Hollywood is like being in high school.  You’re always judged by others, and it’s impossible to please everyone.

She’s obviously young and has much to learn.

Why is it that we waste so much time and effort seeking the approval of others when, in fact, there is only One person we should desire to please?

Honoring God with our thoughts and actions should be our only aim in life.

Doing so takes our focus off of ourselves.

Self confidence built on worldly accolades is fleeting.  That which comes from the Lord is solid and can withstand the ever-changing tide of public opinion or the latest movie review.

Praise the Lord!

  1. As soon as I saw Megan Fox, I groaned… EVERY interview that woman gives, she talks about how beautiful it is & how hard it is on her to keep up that beauty & be so beautiful for the world… blah blah blah…

    you are exactly right – if she took that energy that she focused on her BEAUTY… maybe her inner beauty for the Lord would SHINE above all!!!
