You're Special

Author Unknown

You’re special—in all the world there is nobody like you. Since the beginning of time, there has never been another person like you. Nobody has your smile. Nobody has your eyes, your nose, your hair, your hands, your voice. You’re special.

No one sees things just as you do. In all of time there has been no one who laughs like you, no one who cries like you. And what makes you laugh and cry will never provoke identical laughter and tears from anybody else, ever.

You are the only one in God’s creation with your set of natural abilities. There will always be somebody who is better at one of the things you’re good at, but no one in the universe can reach the quality of your combination of talents, ideas, natural abilities, and spiritual abilities. Like a room full of musical instruments, some may excel alone but none can match the symphony sound of the Body of Christ when all are played together because God set the members, every one of them, in the Body as it hath pleased Him.

Through all eternity no one will ever look, talk, walk, think, or do exactly like you. You’re special.

You’re rare. And, as in all rarity, there is great value. Because of your great value you need not attempt to imitate others. You should accept—yes, celebrate—your differences. You’re special. Continue to realize it’s not an accident that you’re special. Continue to see that God created you special for a very special purpose. He called you out and ordained you to a calling that no one else can do as well as you. Out of all the billions of applicants, only one is qualified, only one has the best combination of what it takes. Just as surely as every snowflake that falls has perfect design and no two designs are the same, so it is within the Body of Christ also. No two believers are the same; and without each member, the Body would be lacking and God’s plan would be incomplete. Ask the Father to teach you His divine plan for your life and that it may stand forth revealed to you as it should, unfolding in perfect sequence and perfect order in such a way as to bring the greatest glory to His name.
