I felt as though it would be a good reminder to any of us who have felt this way in life. "No one is as good as all of us"! None of us are alone in this world and we all have something of value to give everyone. We as people are so much more and who we are does not necessarily define who we are.
================================================
A speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20.00 bill. In
the room of 200 he asked, "Who would like this $20 bill?" Hands
started going up. He said, "I am going to give this $20 to one of
you but first, let me do this. He proceeded to crumple up the $20
dollar bill. He then asked, "Who still wants it?" Still the hands
were up in the air.

Well, he replied, "What if I do this?" And he dropped it on the
ground and started to grind it into the floor with his shoe. He
picked it up, now crumpled and dirty. "Now, who still wants it?"
Still the hands went into the air. Waving the bill he said, "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 $20."

'Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and ground into
the dirt by the decisions we make and 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 LOVE you. You are special - Don't EVER forget it." Count
your blessings, not your problems. And remember: amateurs built the
ark, professionals built the Titanic.

If God brings you to it , He will bring you through it.
