Know Your Worth

A well-known speaker started off his seminar by holding up a $20 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 the dollar bill up. He then asked, "Who still wants it?" Still the hands were up in the air.



"Well," he continued, "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 this $20?" Still the hands went into the air.

"My friends, you 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." 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.

Count your blessings, not your problems.

God has created each of us differently and with such care. He is proud of all His creations. So, if He is proud of you, why should you feel differently about yourself? You are His child after all and you are special in His eyes. Don't forget, it's all about Him. It's not about us. So, whatever other people have to say about you, it doesn't really matter because it's about Him and you are worth as who you are. God loves you, and I love you too.
