We Are All Someone Special God never intended for any of us to be someone elses footstool for them to rest their feet upon, or a door mat for others to wipe their feet on. He also never intended for any of us to be someone elses punching bag to be punched and kicked about whenever the need to release pent up frustration and anger arises. Furthermore, He never intended for any of us to be the object of, or the subject of, constant undue ridicule and criticism. Each of us are special sons and daughters in our Heavenly Fathers eyes. There is not one person who is any more special than another. Our Heavenly Father loves all of His children the same - equally and unconditionally. His love for us is not based on race, religious beliefs and/ or affiliations, culture, or background. It does not even matter to Him if we are married, widowed, single, divorced, rich, or poor. All of us are special and precious in His sight. How sad it is that there are people in the world who always seem to want to treat others as being beneath them. These are those who live under the misconception that the world revolves around them. They think that the sun rises in the morning and sets in the evening upon them, and so in their minds eye they are the only ones that really matter. Everyone else as far as they are concerned are mere insignificant beings. Consequently, they feel that they are the lords and masters and everyone should bow before them as lowly servants. They believe that they can do and say whatever they want, whenever they want, and treat others any way that they want, and no one should say or do anything about it. To do so would constitute treason or an act of insubordination. Sadder still is the fact that there are many wonderful people in this world who have allowed themselves to be literally robbed of their dignity and self-worth because daily they live under the tyrannical reminder from those who think of themselves as being better than they, that at best they themselves are hopeless and unworthy to be treated any differently. Though these precious souls may not agree with the way that they are treated, they, for whatever reasons, choose to retreat to being silent and endure such harassments. Some are simply too kind hearted, loving, and caring individuals to ever want to retaliate in any way or otherwise voice their anger and frustration. And so, in utter desolation, they remain the often silent victims of those who continually take their kindness as a sign of weakness. We are all someone special. Each of us are a precious soul of worth. As such every one of us is entitled to be treated with dignity, respect, and self-worth. No one should ever be left feeling that they are inferior to another. No one should ever feel that there is another who is master over him, for we have only one true Master - the Lord Jesus Christ - the King of Kings, and the Lord of Lords. And it is at His name that one day every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that He alone is LORD! If we find that we are the victim of maltreatment that does not automatically give us a poetic license to become vindictive towards our offenders. Instead we need to take a step back for a moment, and then move forward to handle the situation in such a way that a resolution can be reached in a peaceable and sensible manner without leaving any of those involved in the conflict feeling lonely, rejected, or otherwise feeling inferior when compared to the others. Let the conflict be resolved with the full understanding of all concerned that we are all indeed someone special, so let us treat each other accordingly. ~ Keith Lionel Brown morselsofbread.net
