I am Indian Christian 🇮🇳.....jesus loves us......he is coming......God bless you all

❤️. I deactivated all my social media about 3 months ago. I did miss it at first but I can now say life is much better without it.

Considering secular stuff is not bad. If u know God loves u then self love and worth come naturally 💗

I was struggling with that for a long time, three years ago I delete all my social media, listen the Lord, because he told me deep in my heart and mind to be quiet, and to trust Him ,and works. God bring me so much joy in the little things and spend time with Him. I thank Jesus to show me the way. I am no longer needing social media and I don’t want have it again. The good friends will stay around. Amém 🙏🏼

My mother said horrible things about my appearance and my personality continually until I moved out at 20. It started when I was so young that I believed EVERYTHING she said until I was completely saved. Now I only believe what God says about me. Thank you for bringing up this topic.

thank you for this Ashley. This is such a timely and encouraging video. I’ve been feeling the weight of comparison lately even comparing myself to other Sisters in Christ. I am thankful for this video today!

Girl I was literally struggling with body image and anxiety related to food…like right now!! Thank you so much🙏🏻I deleted all social media two days ago 🥳

You are so beautiful! and good for you. I've been off social media over 18 months now stay strong you are not alone. I have a video on my channel about deleting social media and how my life has been this entire time.

I went through body image problems when I was younger. Now...yes I'd like to lose weight but it's not important anymore except for good health. I do not dwell on anything that makes me feel discontented now. I can't because I can't stand being miserable. I just ask the Lord for help in dealing with things and I've found that trusting Him helps me more than anything. I had no self esteem and was miserable for most of my younger life but the Lord has helped me overcome all of that! Thank you for the scripture today. I don't use apps and I only check my notifications on Facebook once a day...that's it. It helps so much to be rid of all that pressure!

I spend WAY too much time on social media. Psalm 139 and I are going to become great friends this week! Thanks, Ashley. 🥰

Since I enrolled in my church's bible school, everything is changing for the better, only Jesus is my only savior and through him I receive strength every day, God bless you 🙏🔥

Your videos really help me 😆😆

Goodbye social media! Hello more of God's word!! Thanks Ash Xx

what we obey is what we serve. who we serve is our master. following the world's culture, which is constantly changing, we are also constantly running towards nothing but heartache.

Hey guys! I want to encourage you to DO THIS CHALLENGE WITH A FRIEND! Share with a friend and do this challenge together! Meet up to talk about God's Word and reflect on how your week is going social media free! Encourage and sharpen one another in your walk with God! ❤❤❤

But the Lord is with me as a mighty, awesome One. Therefore my persecutors will stumble, and will not prevail. They will be greatly ashamed, for they will not prosper. Their everlasting confusion will never be forgotten. Jeremiah 20:11

The scripture that I'm going to memorize and meditate for a week is, Psalm 139:13-14 ✨🙂

Meditating on Matthew 11:28-30

Me i also have a and anxiety and eating disorder as well but i don't have no problem with body image cuz i love myself and i remember when God told me to love myself as I'm cuz He made me wonderful perfectly made and i use to compare myself with other girls in school or outside but now I don't cuz God remind me that He made me wonderful and i always go on Facebook to Proclaim God's word. And post it on Facebook.

Praise Jesus Christ ! Ashley i love your hair style and i love your beautiful long curly hair ! its fabulous and beautiful !

I’m going to be meditating on psalms 139:17-22 I especially like the verse that says “let me rise with you in the morning and live always with you” This speaks to me as I always habe the intention of giving my day to God but often preoccupy my mind with my daily to do lists and stress of work.

I grateful to God for your life. God spoke with me through this video. May you go ahead being used for God.

Psalm 41:11 ✨❤️

Hi Ashley, this past weekend was hard in the sense that I also struggled with food anxiety/eating disorder thought patterns. I used to have anorexia a few years ago, and the Lord delivered me from that. I’ve gained a lot of weight since, so now thank God I feel so much healthier. At the same time however, it’s been hard being in a new body, and feeling more fat on my bones. The Lord has been teaching me to depend on Him more and more each day, and to put on the full armor of God. Because God knows it more than I do that I can so easily fall into this sin again, of mistreating my body, and thinking obsessively about calories, food, weight, etc. I say all of this to tell you thank you. Thank you for being so honest and open with us. Apparently more people than I thought struggle with these insecurities. And only God can truly set us free. ♥️ -Love in Christ, Hannah :)

I’ve been struggling with this a lot lately especially this morning. I even cried about how unhappy I am with my body so I know this was God that lead me to this video 💗🙏🏾

I'm literally in tears right now Thank you for this video I really need to focus on what God says about me💗💗

wow this right on time

Amen!!!!!

I had anorexia when I was 22 years old. I got over anorexia pretty quick because I realized I was hurting myself. During the time I had anorexia I was constantly getting sick all the time, I was feeling faint, I had no energy to keep myself going during work, my concentration was very low, I was pale, and I was so weak I couldn't even lift 15 pounds. Even though I got over anorexia pretty quick I was eating healthy and exercising a lot. But I was so worried I would gain weight. It took me a very long time to have good relationships with food and to feel happy with myself regardless of where my weight was. Now I am focused on taking care of my body and getting fit.

I struggle with comparison too and how I look. As well as still going through some hard stuff. Still God is always there for me and I love Him so much. I recently spoke with a friend about meditating on Scripture so this is perfect timing to not just say it, but do it! The verses I'll meditate on are Psalm 73: 25-26. He is the One I should desire. Even when I fail, He's my strength. Thank you, Ashley! I'm praying for you!

Romans 8:38-39❤️❤️

Thank You so much, God Bless you more... AmorSister from Philippines

ashley i'm a grown woman and i came across you channel on day and every since i've kept up with you, your mom and sister. i bought your prayer journal (the big one) and the book off amazon for 21 days. im struggling with a lot of things, things that you will not have in your life for years hopefully, but you are on the right track and at your age i wasn't so i think you will always succeed. you are such a beautiful young lady. every time i see you i smile at how adorable you are. i pray that you will overcome many of these anxieties. they will suck the life out of you. i need more help and i would love to know the scriptures. im struggling with work and cleaning my house and just life. im trying now to come off of medications that i don't want to be on. i want OFF. i have been asking God to heal me. will you and your family pray for me? please share the scriptures.

I come into agreement and join into praying for You, Samantha, right now, as per your requested prayers to assist and support You, at work, cleaning your home, your life in general, and coming off medication. Dear Lord, I know that You listen & hear all prayers for good. I speak, Write, and place my prayer for this Sister in Christ that is struggling. I believe and receive her complete healing, by You, Jehovah Rapha, in Jesus' name, Amen!! I thank You, Lord, for bringing me here, in your perfect timing, & thank You, Ashley, for faithfully fulfilling God's assignment to create this video, so that all of us here, might be encouraged. God's continued blessings to All. Bev

Oh yes, you shaped me first inside, then out; you formed me in my mother’s womb. I thank you, High God-you’re breathtaking! Body and soul, I am marvelously made! I worship in adoration-what a creation! You know me inside and out, you know every bone in my body; You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit, how I was sculpted from nothing into something. Like an open book, you watched me grow from conception to birth; all the stages of my life were spread out before you, The days of my life all prepared before I’d even lived one day.

this is crazy because I was already doing it because I had a breakdown because I was comparing myself to my peers on social media. I ended up just deactivating my Instagram because I didn't want to be in that headspace. I feel like this is God telling me that I am on the right track. Thank you so much for this

✝️

This is SO important, bless you Ashley for talking about this! 🙏🏻 And we need to remember that even those who we think look "perfect" are struggling with discontentment!

Hey I'm so lucky I found this channel I love your videos I'm I'm struggling to overcome my dis eating disorder eating disorder as well as learning to grow my faith this channel couldn't have been anymore of a blessing to me. There is so much amazing content on here to help people from all walks of life I love what you're doing

Wow. God is so faithful. I literally needed this exact message today, thank you!!

I am off social media for a long time! Best decision you can make!!!!

Another great video!!!!!!! Worth watching!!!!!

The idea of filling our hearts with God's word was awesome. Thank you so much

I have issues with body image, and have for years now. It is a daily struggle. Some days are better than others! I have deleted my social media since the beginning of October. I don't really have any, but it is a relief. It's like a weight lifted. So thankful I finally watched this video, it's been in my watch later since you posted! Thank you ❤️

Definitely going to challenge myself to do this because I have noticed that my mind is consumed about the opinions and judgements of strangers on social media more than it is with the word of God. Praying for anyone else doing this challenge! ❤️

Thanks girl right on time!!!💗💗

Thank You, Ashley, for bringing attention to the often overlooked social media issue. How much is too much and over the top? Just the fact that You gave us all a pause moment, to consider, discuss, and reason together re: how much social media we feel we need or use, is marvelous. The fact that You demonstrated "purposeful use" of & on this social media platform, is genius 👌😘

Such a great message! There are few things quite as rewarding as memorizing Scripture, not just for the future, but also for the here and now. The act of memorizing is a form of meditating on His Word and helps us to replace time spent on less valuable things (i.e. social media, TV, etc.) with something that is ETERNALLY VALUABLE.

We’d love to see some more ten minute bible studies to start our morning right!

Amen xxx

That’s so cool because I recently deleted social media a month ago because it was a distraction. A good, timely video ☺️

I’m so happy I came past this video. My biggest struggle was body image. Being naturally skinny was very hard for me. Don’t get me wrong super healthy just super tiny I’m a skinny woman. Growing up people would make fun of me nd tbh it still happens to this day. However, I’m learning to love me for me the good the bad and ugly

I definitely will try to do the challenge:) thanks for sharing those verses to get us started

Yes, I'm having all these issues and I have been praying about this from past week to deliver me from binge eating... what a timing!! I will be doing this challenge.. thank you!

Thank you for this challenge, and the scriptures guiding us into it. I'm going to be behind because I'm just starting this week❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

YESSSSS thank you for sharing!!!! This world holds women to a standard that is just SO unrealistic!!! It is so sad to see so many women struggle with this! I love that you talked about this, I have been wanting to make a video on this topic as well because it is so important!

Thnx Ash❣️God bless u alwyz..... Love frm India....🇮🇳

You Go girl!!! That whistle blower testimony before the senate last week about the impact of Facebook and IG on body image, addiction potential, etc, should be sufficient enough motivation to use discernment...

Love this

I am meditating on Genesis 1:27!

Struggle daily with body image and food. Some days better than others.
