Whilst browsing through a laptop hard drive, I came across the following - which I appear to have stored without any indication as to its source! I have made a few amendments, but apologise for any unintended breach of copyright. If you are feeling low, and nursing a low self-image, these words may help!
In all the world there is nobody like you. Since the
beginning of time there has never been another person exactly like you. Nobody
has your smile, your eyes, your hands, your hair. Nobody owns your handwriting, your voice.
You're special.
Nobody can paint your brush strokes. Nobody
has precisely your taste for food or music or dance or art. Nobody in the universe sees things in
exactly the same way as you do.
You're special.
In all time there has never been anyone who laughs in
exactly your way. You're different from any other person who has ever lived in
the history of the universe. You are the only one in the whole of creation who has your
particular set of abilities. Nobody in the universe can reach the quality of the
combination of your talents, your feelings. Until the end of time, no one will ever walk, talk, think or
do exactly like you.
You're special.
You're rare and in all rarity
there is enormous value and because of your great value the need for you to imitate anyone else
is absolutely wrong. You're special, and it is no accident that you are. Please realise
that God made you for a special purpose. He has a job for you to do that nobody else can do
as well as you can. Out of the billions of applicants, only one qualified. Only one has the
unique and right combination of what it takes and that one is you.
You're special.
Indeed, you are so special that, if you were the only human being ever to have sinned; and you had committed, in your whole life, only one sin, Jesus - God the Son - would still have gone to a cross, and died, just for you! Now that makes you really special!
