Divine Nature

This is part of a lesson that I taught called "Understanding Your Divine Nature". I held up the first pot (plain pot with the beautiful plant inside of it) and then held up the second (much prettier pot) and asked if they could be represented by a flower pot, which pot would you choose to be??? (Of course, they pretty much chose the pretty pot) Before we came to earth, our Heavenly Father took the time to discuss with us our mission upon the earth, the talents we'd be given, the challenges we'd face and before letting us go, I can see that same loving Heavenly Father tell us of his love for each and every one of us. When we were born to our parents, we all do not have the same skin color, or hair color. Some have freckles and some have perfect hair and some not so perfect hair. Some of us have physical challenges were we're dependant on a wheelchair or have illnesses to overcome in this lifetime. But no matter what package or physical bodies we are given in this life, know that we are daughters of a king, the father of our spirits. We are each equally unique and beautiful in our own way and special in the sight of God. And your worth is so much greater than what the eye can see. And as a great tree bears many branches, each branch is an extension of a greater source. So it is with us, we are an extension of a greater being who fathered our spirits and knows us better than we can ever know ourselves.
