Sing your song

We tend to compare ourselves with others these days

Never feeling confident about ourselves

We base who we are on what is seen on TV, internet and magazines

Having the need to be a certain weight or height

To truly feel a self-fulfillment

Trying to do things that are beyond us

To actually find our self-worth

Playing the same game no one never played

-If only I was smarter, taller or slimmer

More confident, prettier or musically inclined

The list goes on

And no one is exempted

We compare ourselves with celebrities, siblings and friends

How can he be so funny?

Why can she sing so well?

I wish I had those brains

Are people that good looking even for real?

Focusing on all the wrong  places

Instead of what matters most

THE HEART.

We were all wonderfully and fearfully made

Unique in our own different ways

Yet we tend to turn a blind eye on the beauty in ourselves

Painting a hideous picture of what we see in the mirror
Thinking that we could be better

My mom just told me

About singing my own song

Never allowing me to compare myself with others

For I have my journey crafted out for me

No point walking in the path of someone else

God gave me a song

And its my duty to sing it

To sing it well with all my heart

And to never doubt who I am

And all that's within me

No point comparing songs with anyone else

For God's got it written especially for me

And He wrote one especially for you

Sing it well with all your might

And know that the Author of your song is always right

We may get out of key or even out of tune at some point

But who cares because this is your song

And without failures how would we ever learn?

Besides you're singing for Him and no one else

And to Him you'll sound ever so beautiful

Without tuning ourselves to the One who has perfect pitch

We will totally get it all wrong

But once we let go and not try to hard

As the breathing steadies and rhythm takes place

Take courage and sing that one written song specifically for you

He hears you sing

And He'll sing it with you

After all He wrote the song

According to who you truly are

His child

So the next time you start whining and thinking

Why others have it all together

Way better than you

The self esteem and self confidence all gone

And you forget the purpose you live for

Remember that you have your own song to sing

A song so beautiful it'll take His breath away

They have their song to sing too so just leave it to them

And know that you can do it, so just

Sing your song!
