"And the Father looked down
And the angels surrounded that place
They knew the truth, all that you could do
And you will, too, if you have eyes to see
What heaven sees in you"
This Chorus has been running through my mind a lot lately. Why is it so hard to sometimes see what Heaven can see in us. We start to feel like the ugly duckling and think that we are not good enough. But when we open our eyes and see what we are in God's eyes, We can rise to our potential and become the gorgeous swan that we were meant to be. The Ugly Duckling thought he was suppose to be a duck and he quickly realized he was different. But excepting that he was different than the others and could never become anything was a choice that brought him down. When he saw who he could be and became a swan, he was the best swan on the lake! A lot of times I feel like the ugly duckling! But when we see ourselves through Heavens eyes, we have no need to.

Watch this video and contemplate what our Heavenly Father sees in each of us.
We are Sons and Daughters of a Heavenly Father. We are precious and loved deeply. Our Heavenly Father loves us so much that he trusted us to come to this earth so that we could progess and then return and live with Him. He wants us back. He sees goodness, talents, gifts, love, loyalty, knowledge, and a worthy person to help all of God's other children on this earth! You were sent to earth at this time, for a special reason. Never believe that you are not worth EVERYTHING our Heavenly Father gives you. You are worth it! He believes in you. Believe in Yourself!

fun vidoe. Yes we are all of great worth!
ReplyDeleteI love the story of the Ugly Ducking. Have you seen the video with President Uchtdorf about our Identity? He tells this story in it. Such a great message. I know that we are all Gods children. We have a divine heritage. What a wonderful gift to know that we can return to him. Thanks for all your post Sister Powell.
