This was written for someone very special to me who has been adopted by heart and who does not realize their true value as a person and/or potential in God. It is my prayer that one day they will not only accept and love themselves but also find God and His unconditional love. Many times we can view ourselves through fragmented vision from hurts that have been hurled at us. We are left looking at ourselves from behind a distorted view and thinking of ourselves as less than what we are. We can also feel anything less than perfect is a failure. I hope that these words will give them hope when life sends temporary struggles. I hope that when they feel their life is not important, they will at least know it is important to me, and whether they accept it or not, to God.
Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
My Wish For You...
My wish for you…
To see yourself through another’s eyes and to realize and accept the treasured uniqueness that you are now and the potential for what you can be tomorrow. To allow yourself the freedom to not only dream but to live out and exceed those dreams. To seek your true potential through the identity and gifts you’ve been exclusively given.
My wish for you…
To see beyond the limitations and constraints that you set in your own way through needless doubt and inflated self-criticisms. To see yourself as you truly are and realize that none of us are perfect but that doesn’t decrease self-worth or value to others. The value is in who you wholly are - as you are.
My wish for you…
To live life fully through all it’s temporary ups and downs and continual changes. To never give up or give in to momentary setbacks. To discover that your life wasn’t created by chance but by precision with meaningful purpose fashioning you exactly as you are – who you are - without replication.
My wish for you…
To accept yourself and realize that you are loved exactly as you are. Always.
