Have you ever
found yourself standing in the middle of a crowd? You look around, and you
can't see anyone you know ... and you're sure that no one in that crowd knows
you. You've had that feeling, haven't you? When you're standing in the middle
of that crowd you have a strong feeling that no one even knows you exist. And
just at that moment you probably also feel like there's nothing special about
you at all. You're just another person ... another face in the crowd.
Well, that's
not an unusual feeling to have. You're not the first person to feel that way.
But you're wrong. I can guarantee it. You're not just another face in the
crowd. You are unique ... you are special ... there is no one else in
the entire world exactly like you.
Nick Vujicic (the
limbless motivational speaker and preacher) is thankful to have been born 30
years ago with no arms and no legs. That he was limbless made him unique.
I have a friend whose laughter makes people turn their heads. That makes him a
unique person because there is no two people on earth who can laugh the same
way he laughs. Even if there is someone that laughs like him, I am sure the person
doesn’t sneeze the way he does.
Psalm 139:14
says, “I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous
are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.” Of all the people
who have come and gone on the earth, since the beginning of time, not ONE of
them is like YOU! No one prays about exactly the same concerns as you do.
See it!
Receive it! Let it tickle you! Let it inform you and nudge you and inspire you!
YOU ARE UNIQUE! YOU ARE NOT COMMON. YOU ARE PRICELESS. YOU ARE FEARFULLY AND
WONDERFULLY MADE. YOU ARE NOT A CHEAP COMMODITY. YOU ARE NOT JUST ANYONE, YOU
ARE YOU. CHERISH THAT. CARRY YOURSELF WITH AN UNDERSTANDING THAT YOU ARE
ROYALTY IN PERSON.
Father, help
me to value my uniqueness in Jesus Name. Amen!
