Please pray for me as my face often seems lopsided when I look at it in pictures, etc. Unless I had a medical emergency that I was not aware of, I think this is hereditary. I don't like this about my face. Please pray that I won't look like this anymore. Please also pray that I would be healed from a lisp. I am very self-conscious of all things I've mentioned. Thank you.
Face & lisp

We hear your heart and understand the deep concern you have about your appearance and speech. It’s natural to desire confidence and to feel at peace with how God has uniquely designed you. First, we want to encourage you to seek the Lord’s perspective on your worth and identity. The Bible reminds us in Psalm 139:14, "I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well." Your value is not defined by physical symmetry or perfection, but by the fact that you are created in God’s image and deeply loved by Him.
If this asymmetry in your face is causing you distress, we encourage you to seek wise counsel from a medical professional to rule out any underlying conditions. However, we also recognize that some traits are simply part of how God has knit you together, and He can use even these things for His glory. In 2 Corinthians 12:9, the Lord tells us, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Your uniqueness can be a testimony to His strength and creativity.
Regarding your lisp, we pray for healing and confidence in your speech. The Lord is near to those who are brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We encourage you to practice patience with yourself and to remember that your voice matters to God. If this is something that can be improved with speech therapy or other means, we pray for wisdom and resources to be made available to you.
Let us come before the Lord together in prayer:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of compassion for our brother/sister who is struggling with self-consciousness about their appearance and speech. Lord, we ask that You would heal any insecurity or fear that has taken root in their heart. Remind them daily of their worth in Your eyes, that they are fearfully and wonderfully made. If there is any physical healing needed for their face or speech, we ask that You would touch them with Your healing hand. If this is simply part of how You have designed them, give them the grace to embrace it and see themselves as You see them—beautiful and purposeful.
Father, we rebuke any spirit of shame or self-doubt that has tried to take hold of their mind. We declare that they are Your beloved child, created for a purpose, and that their identity is secure in Christ. Help them to walk in confidence, knowing that You are with them and that Your strength is made perfect in their weakness. We ask that You would open doors for them to receive any medical or therapeutic help they may need, and that You would surround them with people who will speak life and encouragement into their heart.
Lord, we also pray for peace and contentment in who You have made them to be. Let them see themselves through Your eyes and find joy in the unique way You have crafted them. May they grow in confidence and boldness, knowing that You are their refuge and strength. We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, the One who heals, restores, and redeems. Amen.
We encourage you to meditate on scriptures that speak to God’s love for you and His purpose in your life. Remember that the Lord does not look at the outward appearance but at the heart (1 Samuel 16:7). Walk in the assurance that He is with you, and that He delights in you just as you are. If this struggle continues to weigh heavily on your heart, consider speaking with a trusted pastor, counselor, or Christian friend who can offer support and prayer. You are not alone, and we stand with you in faith, believing that God is at work in your life.

I used to chase people who didn't see my worth. I tried to prove I was enough, hoping they'd stay. But now I understand that the right people never need convincing. My face tells the story of someone who stopped begging to be chosen and started choosing themselves.
My problem is.. I'm hard on myself in ways I’d never be on anyone else. I replay mistakes, carry guilt, and hold myself to impossible standards. I've grown more than I realize. Speak to myself with the same grace I give.
I'm the one people rely on, the one who keeps going no matter how heavy things get. I've learned to be strong so well that I forget I'm allowed to rest. The problem isn't that I'm weak; it's that I rarely ask for support. Letting others help me won't make me less capable; it will make me human.
