    Everybody Is A Real Somebody

    An insane man was brought to one of our teaching meetings overseas. Fifty thousand people were there. He was known as the running maniac. His hair and beard were long, disheveled and flea-infested. His body was filthy. His rags barely covered his nakedness.

    God never created anybody unable to think or act normally

    God never created anybody to be unable to think and act normally, or to live in shame and disgrace. I did not know that the insane man was in the audience as I planted the seeds of HUMAN VALUE in the minds of the people.

    There is a miraculous power in truth. I believe words are seeds. They have ability to produce what they say. They are energizers.

    I told that audience:

    "Each one of you is beautifully and wonderfully made-in God's image. Every individual among you is special. You do not have to be second class. You are each unique. God who created you like Himself, put you here for a purpose so special that no one else on earth can do what you are here to do."

    Those word-seeds had power.

    There is a remarkable statement in the Bible about the power of Jesus' words. As He was teaching, the power of the Lord was there to heal the people. Luke 5:17

    That has to be what happened to the insane man who was brought to our meeting that day.

    We taught that crowd the essence of what I will share with you in this book. We emphasizd that God made no one for failure, poverty, sickness or shame; that everybody is a real somebody in God's eyes.

    I urged that audience to personally accept the fact that each of them was a special creation of God and to begin believing that by cooperating with God, any person could realize the BEST in life.

    In some miraculous way those seeds of truth penetrated that insane man and his mind was healed and his life was transformed.

    Before those teaching sessions were over, that man was perfectly normal. He was clean, groomed and wearing a suit. He attended every meeting, listening, learning and developing into a remarkably balanced gentleman.

    The power of the truths I will share in this book, brought him all the way from a running, half-naked, wild man to a groomed, well dressed gentleman. He found good employment and has become a positive influence in his community. He is a living example of one who rose from emptiness to meaningful living.

    No human being was ever created to be inferior.

    God never planned for anyone to be lonely, defeated, unhealthy, destructive or despondent.

    God created YOU in His own image, to live His life, to walk and to talk with Him, to think, plan and act with Him.
