Wouldn't it be great if we could see ourselves as others do? Or, even better, as God does?Lenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15589772633443401897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5416556583423635558.post-9846955403796738082015-07-21T13:09:31.955-05:002015-07-21T13:09:31.955-05:00I laughed out loud, Victor!

Take a good look in the mirror and see yourself as others see you, not as you criticise in your mind.<br /><br />You're beautiful both physically and as a person. Do you know why? Because you're a creature of God and there are no rejects on God's production line.<br /><br />Here's a TRUE story which will hopefully bring a cheerful smile on that lovely face of yours:<br /><br />A very rich woman in hospital in intensive care dies for a few seconds. She sees herself leave her body in a near death experience and meets God in Heaven. “Is that it?” she asks Him, “Am I dead?”<br /><br />“No,” says God, “you will live for many more years yet!”<br /><br />She recovers in hospital and is well again. She is so cheerful that she decides to improve herself. She gets plastic surgery done on her face, gets her hair re-styled and dyed a different colour, gets liposuction in all the righ places, has bits lifted up that need lifting up, gets a new set of stylish clothes and looks terrific once again.<br /><br />A few days later she is hit by a bus and killed instantly.<br /><br />When she meets God she complains, “I thought you said I’ll live for many years yet!”<br /><br />He replies, “Sorry, I didn’t recognize you after the make-over!”<br /><br />Keep smiling Lulu, and remember you are wonderful. Just ask anyone who knows you.<br /><br />God bless.<br /><br />Victor S E Moubarakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04280638667651857296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5416556583423635558.post-60981827785637829622015-07-21T09:51:19.126-05:002015-07-21T09:51:19.126-05:00I think a lot of us, especially young people and w...I think a lot of us, especially young people and women, struggle with this problem. Sad really. Since I wasn't born beautiful or had admiring parents, I've learned to rely on wit and humor. That's one thing that helped keep me sane. It's kinda nice being ordinary. That way no one expects me to be fashionable or pretty or even glamorous. Besides, I can't be seen under a helmet or zipping by at 65 mph. *giggle* Thought provoking post as always Lulu. Have a blessed day. ~:)Sparkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531515666554867421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5416556583423635558.post-85119476995146845822015-07-21T08:42:55.799-05:002015-07-21T08:42:55.799-05:00We both need to just get over it- right, Friend? ...We both need to just get over it- right, Friend?
