Our Uniqueness!
"I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion,
and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand,
having His Father’s name
written on their foreheads."
Revelation 14: 1
Fred Rogers of children’s television said, “One of
the most important gifts a parent can give a child
is the gift of accepting that child’s uniqueness.” Our
Heavenly Father not only accepts our
uniqueness;
He made us that way!
We are not all
to be poured into the same mold so that
we’re all alike. God made us as individuals and unique
servants of His. Each of us has a responsibility, and
a purpose, a reason to live for Christ each day.
In Revelation, 144,000 witnesses have a specific task.
They 're to evangelize the world, and they 're uniquely
gifted for that. Perhaps the greatest thing said about
them is “these are the ones who follow the Lamb
wherever He goes” (Revelation 14:4).
God made you different from everyone else who's
ever lived. You don’t have to be like everyone else.
Comparing yourself to another is useless. Our job
is to be who the Lord made us to be and to follow
the Lamb wherever He goes.
"God gives each one of us unique gifts, abilities, and
passions. How well we use those qualities to
have
an impact on the world around us determines how
“successful” we really are."
Tony Dungy
