How do you see yourself?
I don’t think it’s uncommon for people to see and focus on their flaws. Even someone with a healthy self-esteem is very aware of their shortcomings or weaknesses.
What you see when you look in the mirror is only part of the picture. Try this…
When you look in the mirror, ask yourself, “What does God see?” More than that, think about how much He loves you, and has loved you from the moment you were conceived!
“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand—when I awake, I am still with you.” (Psalm 139:14-18 NIV)
