In case you were never told, believe from this day forward that you were born on purpose. You are no accident. You are no mistake. You are not useless! It doesn't matter where in the world you were born. It doesn't matter if you are rich or poor. You must never accept anything less! It doesn't matter who believes in you as long as you believe in yourself. If a little seed possesses the ability to produce an entire forest. Can you imagine how much value lies within you? If God could have placed such significance on the output of a seed.
Can you imagine the significance He placed on you who is of far more value than a seed? The story is told of the mustard seed, The Kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field; which indeed is smaller than all seeds but when it is grown, it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches. If the smallest of all the seeds can produce trees of such great magnitude, can you imagine the endless possibilities that are within you? There isn't anyone who was born to occupy space, not me, not you!
There's a special purpose within every one of us that is of great value to our world at this specific time in earth's history. A life wasted, is anyone who would have lived without fulfilling their purpose. They would have done their creator and fellowmen a great disservice. Don't ever believe that you serve no purpose. You are just as important as everyone else. We are not independent of each other. The wealthiest among us need someone to provide them with food, build the house that they live in, make the car that they drive, and the clothes that they wear. They need someone to take care of them if they should get sick. Don't wish that you were another person that is doing something great, your purpose isn't theirs and their purpose isn't yours.
Nonetheless, however much they make of their purpose, doesn't mean that it holds more value than yours. Every purpose is important. Like the bible says in 1 Corinthians 12:21-22. The eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you. Some parts of the body that seem weakest and least important are the most necessary. Do what you were created to do. Serve your purpose well. There are many mighty things that you can do!
