Who
We Are
A well-known 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.
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 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."
If you do not pass this on, you may
never know the
lives it touches, the hurting
hearts it speaks to,
or the hope that it can bring.
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.
Pass this message on.
You will receive a miracle
tomorrow.
