These are the lyrics in a popular Bruno Mars song:
When I see your face
There’s not a thing that I would change
‘Cause you’re amazing just the way you are.
When you smile
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
‘Cause you’re amazing just the way you are.
What if you believed this? What if you believed that you are amazing just the way you are…your face is amazing, your smile is amazing…and even beyond that to your heart…all amazing. Just think about it for a minute, no matter what resistance you might be feeling, stop and think about how you would feel if you thought that you were amazing just the way you are.
Close your eyes, take a deep breath and imagine being amazing right here, right now. Do it!
You are not amazing because of any external condition…physical, financial, social, economical, cultural or political. You are not amazing because other people think you are important or because a lot of people depend on you. You are not amazing because of where you live or how much you know.
You are amazing because you are alive. You are amazing because you are uniquely created to express God in a way that no other human being can. You are amazing because the potential to express your uniqueness lies within you…simply waiting for your permission to be revealed to the rest of us.
Nope, not a thing that I would change…you are amazing. Close you eyes again and feel your amazing-ness.
Where is it guiding you?
Because you’re amazing,
Paula
PS Love, peace and safety to all those affected by hurricane Matthew.
