I’ve not seen this promise before. No one has ever attempted, so blatantly anyhow, to inform us of the impossible. But ladies ~ it’s finally come ~ the opportunity of a lifetime. The opportunity to be… AMAZING!
Let me explain. Two years ago I discovered (by an ad posted in the sidebar at Facebook) that I could actually buy a brain. You just can’t get a brain any easier than that now, can you? And now, as luck would have it, I can, by another promise posted in the sidebar at Facebook, ‘make myself amazing’, if I ‘Beat the New Year’s Rush Now!’. And, if I happen to beat the rush? I will have made ‘2010 simply amazing’.
What is this magical and mystical thing they’re promising? If I hurry and take the 600 dollars offered through this ad and put it toward this simply amazing thing, I can have my breast enlarged (not two – just one) and be… simply amazing.
Amazing… this procedure promises that I’ll be amazing. In other words, remarkable. Wonderful. Marvelous. Mind-blowing. Without this procedure, I will just be – me and I don’t ever recall blowing anyone’s mind or known as ‘marvelous’.
Certainly is tempting, isn’t it? Alter your appearance and become an amazing creature overnight with the ability to be a mind-blowing phenomenon (Just because I had one breast enlarged – not two. Don’t forget that.).
My point? (There really is a serious side to this.)
I’m already amazing!
I am not perfect, I would never consider myself amazing whatsoever, but God thinks I am the apple of His eye. Isn’t that amazing? Zechariah 2:8 says, “for he that touches you touches the apple of His eye.” Now, that is mind-blowing. I don’t have to do anything ~ change my hair color, my eye color, my shoe size, or my breast size. He thinks I am amazing just the way I am. That is incredible. Think about it…
God knew me long ago – knew me before I took my first breath. If that’s true, then he knew what I would look like now and yet, He didn’t say, “Oops – I goofed. Better send that one to the MYA (Make Yourself Amazing company).
For some reason I got the bluish green eyes and my daughter in-law got brown. I got the puppy nose and my friend who thinks it’s the cutest nose ever got a pointy one. Does that make one of us amazing and others in need of some MYA Therapy? I hardly think so.
God made us –each one – just the way we needed to be and if by some chance, someone does see something amazing about us, it won’t be because of anything we’ve done. And, while MYA and Sons offers amazing promises, the only change that’s going to happen with the kind of promise they’re making will be on the outside. The sad thing is – God’s not looking at the breast job or the tummy tuck or the ‘six packs’. He’s got His eyes focused on the heart. Man focuses his eyes on the outside.
So, if you’re thinking about calling the MYA and Affiliates, think again and ask yourself why. You’re already amazing if you’re a child of the King.
Simply amazing.
