What Are You Worth?

The other day a professor was giving a $20.00 bill away in his class.

He stood behind his podium and raised the fresh crisp bill high for everyone to see that it was real. 

He then asked who would like to have it, no strings attached. Of course everyone responded, they would gladly take it.

He then crumpled it up and asked once more. Of course everyone responded, they would still gladly take it.

He then threw it on the floor and stomped on it and ground it into the carpet. By now the $20.00 was tattered and dirty, used looking and no longer crisp.

He asked one last time, who would still like to have it? As before everyone responded  they would still gladly take it.

The professor asked one student why he still wanted it looking like it did. He responded saying, even though it was crumpled, stomped, ground into the floor, tattered and dirty it was still a $20.00 bill and it still held it's "Value."

That's exactly how God feels about us...we are His creation and no matter what happens to us during our life, we may feel crumpled, stomped on, ground to the floor, tattered, dirty and used by this world and Satan...He still Loves us, we are still "Valuable" to Him.
