A well known speaker started off his seminar holding up a $100 note. In
the room of 1000 he asked, "Who would like this $100 note?" Hands
started going up. He said, "I am going to give this $100 to one of you,
but first, let me do this." He proceeded to crumple up the $100 note. He
then asked, "Who still wants it...?" Still the hands were up in the
air. "Well," he replied, "What if I do this?" & he
dropped it on the ground & started to grind it into the floor with his
shoe. He picked it up, now crumpled & dirty. Now, who still wants it?"
Still the hands went into the air.
"My friends, we have all learned a very valuable lesson. No matter
what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not decrease in
value. It was still worth $100.
Many times in our lives, we are
dropped, crumpled & ground into the dirt by the decisions we make & the circumstances that come our
way. We feel as though we are worthless. But no matter what has happened or what will happen,
you will never lose your value. Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless
to those who DO LOVE you.
The worth of our lives comes not in what we do or who we know, but by
WHO WE ARE. You are special-Don't EVER forget it.
GOD made you for a reason when
you realize it, do it and your life will always be a blessing.
