How He Sees Me

Joy flooded my heart as I heard the words I had waited to hear for what seemed like a century. I always thought I would be alone. I would come to points in my life where I just accepted the fact and tried to be okay with it. But try as I did, it was to no avail. The same feeling kept coming back and I would drown myself in the tears I didn’t even know were locked up inside. I was never content. I knew I couldn’t go on like this. The emotion came in cycles it seemed until I was desperate enough to ask the only one who could truthfully tell me how he saw me. I just had to know. I am a seeker of truth, and any less might as well not even be mentioned in my book. It was the hardest thing to do, to ask. But it was the most beautiful day of my life when he answered. I wish I had adequate words to describe what he showed me, but it is beyond even my imagination. If you can, imagine everything you’ve always wanted to be, all the times you’ve dreamed and wished that you could be a certain way, because deep down in your heart of hearts you knew you were made for it. Think with me that you really are that person, because—and this might be hard to receive—you are! Those things you imagine about yourself if only you could be—that is exactly how your Heavenly Father sees you. That’s what he showed me. Now it’s my responsibility to start living the way he sees me. I couldn’t tell you why he would see me in such a way, but I know he does. The only word that would be able to give any kind of explanation is love. He loves me. He made me a certain way, and so the desires I have are right; if his spirit is truly in me then my desires and dreams line up with his.
