The question: What would possess a mother to get plastic surgery to look like her daughter?
The situation: They say it’s a new trend! Mothers getting plastic surgery to look exactly like their daughters. In this instance, a 50ish year old woman decided, after realizing she “let herself go”, to take matters into her own hands. She didn’t just want to look younger, or be content with her 30lbs. weight loss; she decided to go under the knife to look just like her daughter. OUCH and WHAT?
Church Girl Says: I was just thinking about how mothers and daughters favor each other, but this is a completely new extreme. Can you begin to imagine what is going through that mother’s mind that feels it is normal to make herself into the image of her child? Their makeup, clothing, and now face are the same (well not exactly, but that’s what she was going for). Since when did children have so much influence over a parent? Shouldn’t it be the other way around?
I’m also wondering if the mother’s failed relationship coupled with the fact that she lives with her daughter, have anything to do with her plunge into the deep end?
What women need to realize is their worth is not determined by the size of their hips or how good they are in bed. It’s really about a right relationship with God. Only He can restore in her what the world has taken away. Self-esteem is not gained by plastic surgery, overeating, men, and any other vice that takes hold of women refusing to let them go. It sounds corny, but it begins within. What is the use of having a beautiful house on the outside, but when you step foot in the door you see nothing but trash?
When you change what’s on the inside, you will begin to appreciate everything that is on the outside.
The Word: Genesis 1:26 (The Message)
26-28 God spoke: "Let us make human beings in our image, make them reflecting our nature… God created human beings; he created them godlike, reflecting God's nature.
Romans 12:1-2 (The Message)
1-2 So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.
