A Song From Mars

When I first heard Just the Way You Are by Bruno Mars, Scott and I were in the car on our way home from Dallas.

I instantly fell in love with it.  I hung on every word.  I love the lyrics, the melody, and especially the message.  I pray that God will bring into my life a man who possessing the same feelings of love and adoration of which Bruno Mars sings.

I want to be beautiful to someone.  The song has remained on repeat in my iTunes library and after the fiftieth time of hearing it, I slowly realized I already am beautiful to someone.  I’m searching for a love I already have.

I imagine God saying these things to me, reminding me I’m beautiful and I am His, whether I see it or not.

She’s so beautiful                   
And I tell her every day         
Yeah, I know, I know             
When I compliment                 
She won’t believe me             
And it’s so, it’s so sad to think
She don’t see what I see       
But every time she asks me   
Do I look okay, I say              
When I see your face            
There’s not a thing that         
I would change                       
‘Cause you’re amazing           
Just the way you are             
And when you smile,              
 The whole world stops          
And stares for a while            
‘Cause girl you’re amazing      
Just the way you are
               
I made you
I show you every day in little and big ways
I know you
I love you every day
I know you’ve been broken by others and it’s difficult for you to see
But don’t be sad
I know your heart
I know your prayers and questions
I will always say
I made you, I love you
I made you exactly you
I made you everything you are
You are everything I designed
I made you just the way you are
I love when you smile
Don’t worry of the world
Don’t worry of the world
You’re Jamie
I made you just the way you are
She’s so beautiful                   
And I tell her every day
Oh, you know, you know
I’d never ask you to change
If perfect is what u r searching for
Then just stay the same
So don’t even bother asking
If you look okay
You know I’d say
When I see your face
There’s not a thing that
I would change
‘Cause you’re amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
 The whole world stops
And stares for a while
‘Cause girl you’re amazing
Just the way you are
You are beautiful to me
I show you every day
I know, I know
You are beautiful how I made you
You are not perfect, but perfectly made
So don’t struggle over something unattainable
So do not despair
Because you are beautiful to me
I am here for you always
I made you
I made you
I made you
I made you
Just the way you are
Smile for Me
I made the world
For you
You are My Jamie
I love you just the way you are


How wonderful it is to have a God that loves us just as much as we love Him.  He is the ideal.  I need to love Him completely and trust that He will bring into my life an honorable man who wants to glorify Him and, in doing so, will adore and love his future wife.

Love was not made to be bland, but to excite the senses, awakening us daily to God and reminding us of His true love for us.
