Just Be You

June 24, 2015 By Mrs. Mom Leave a Comment

Being original isn’t hard, but for some reason, we all struggle at it a little bit.

We look around and see certain things working for some people and other things working for others. We wonder, “could any of this work for me.”

Without saying no, I am saying that it is extremely critical that we realize the importance in being unique.

Out of all the people in the world, there are no two that share the same fingerprint. That says a lot.

Although we all have eyes and they range from green, to blue, to brown…no two people have the same iris or retinal pattern.

I would bet that if we were to count the number of hairs on our heads, we would find that we differ there as well.

What does this say about our Maker? What does this say about us.

Well, from where I’m sitting, it says that He likes variety and uniqueness. It says that being special is not found in our commonality, but in our uniqueness.

This makes sense because some people wonder how God could find you, me, and 50,000 others special. The truth is we are all special in different ways. He looks at us and sees who we are and that is what makes us special.

We each make Him laugh a certain way. We get His attention and touch His heart in a certain way…

Do you see where I am going with this?

Our family and friends feel the same way, even if they never say it. They see how unique and special we are and their hearts smile…

I am saying all of this to help you, and me, walk upright with our heads held high because we are, in our uniqueness, great.

So stop trying to be like the other gal and just be you…

You Are More…

Sometimes we forget.

We forget that we are special.

We forget that we are unique.

We forget the times when we didn’t mess up.

We forget how much fun we are.

Sometimes we need to be reminded…

Someone sees you as amazing.

Someone thinks that you are great.

Someone wants you to shine.

…but what does it take for us to realize that we are more that we thought we were?

It takes a hit of encouragement.

I got that today. It was a dose of…you’re special.

Today through God’s word, someone told me that I am amazing and I smiled.

I smiled because for a moment I had forgotten the things that I was good at. I had forgotten not to compare myself to others. I saw their strengths and my weaknesses. I had forgotten that the standard I need to meet is God’s standard.

The word, sparked life into my being and it hit home that I am great and it’s ok because I’m not great in my own strength. I’m great in His.

Many daughters have done virtuously, nobly, and well [with the strength of character that is steadfast in goodness], but you excel them all.

With this word I realized that this is how God sees me. This is how He sees you. That uniqueness that we bring to the table makes him say this to both you and me. So…don’t change who you are. Be 100% you…ALL OF THE TIME…

And remember… You are amazing!
