A $20 miracle - Motivation story

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.


And to think about this....make sense, right?

So go ahead to copy this and send to your friends and loved ones.
