More Beautiful You

Little girl fourteen flipping through a magazine
Says she wants to look that way
But her hair isn't straight her body isn't fake
And she's always felt overweight

Well little girl fourteen I wish that you could see
That beauty is within your heart
And you were made with such care your skin your body and your hair
Are perfect just the way they are

There could never be a more beautiful you
Don't buy the lies disguises and hoops they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you

Little girl twenty-one the things that you've already done
Anything to get ahead
And you say you've got a man but he's got another plan
Only wants what you will do instead

Well little girl twenty-one you never thought that this would come
You starve yourself to play the part
But I can promise you there's a man whose love is true
And he'll treat you like the jewel you are

So turn around you're not too far
To back away be who you are
To change your path go another way
It's not too late you can be saved
If you feel depressed with past regrets
The shameful nights hope to forget
Can disappear they can all be washed away
By the one who's strong can right your wrongs
Can rid your fears dry all your tears
And change the way you look at this big world
He will take your dark distorted view
And with His light He will show you truth
And again you'll see through the eyes of a little girl

This Little One

... is quite possibly the best thing in life that's happen to me thus far. She brings such a joy to me. And she has such good parents. Her smile lights up the room in 1.1 second! She's precious.

Symphony

I performed at the Phoenix Symphony this past Sunday, and it was great. Not the actual show, or the standing ovation, or the chance to be part of such a cultural experience but a simple question that was asked to me. A girl Lindsey asked me, "Sheena, before the performance, can you pray with me that the show will go well?" I looked in amazement and said with no hesitation YES! I can't believe that I've made an impression on these girls at dance enough to want to pray with me. So as we nervously awaited our 'Q' to go on stage Lindsey grabbed my hands and said, "Let's pray!" So I did, I prayed and she hugged me and said, "Okay! I think we can do this!" 

People wonder, after a few horrible rehearsals, and mess up's after mess up's how we possibly pulled the show off with only minor mistakes. I don't have to wonder at all. Because I prayed for a show like that before we even started! 

It was just amazing, though, that someone wanted to pray with me. I have never forced my "religion" on anyone, never said your bad if you don't go to church or pray, but simply have been trying my best to live it out, and believe it or not, the Light really does shine through.
