“Today’s message was written by my friend, Roger Kunkel, founder of Dial Hope.” -Joe

Martin Buber wrote, “Before his death, Rabbi Zusya said, ‘In the coming world, they will not ask me, “Why were you not Moses?” They will ask my, “Why were you not Zusya?”’

Friend of Dial Hope, one your main goals while on earth is to become who you really are… to acknowledge it and celebrate it. You are not Florence Nightingale or Mother Teresa, Tiger Woods or Lance Armstrong. You are you! So don’t waste time being anybody else but yourself. That will be enough challenge to consume your time and effort.

There is an Ashleigh Brilliant cartoon which reads, “I may not be totally perfect, but parts of me are excellent.” I contend that each of you has many excellent parts to your being, more than you might even recognize thus far on your journey. Different parts in each of you, but excellent ones for sure. Seek out your special identity. Then salute it, nourish it, fulfill it! And, remember, God doesn’t make no junk! God loves you.

Let us pray: God of love, be with those hurting this day. Be with those who are struggling with their identity, who cannot find the confidence to take a step toward you. Be with those who are afraid. When life looks grim, paint our souls with color. When life looks hopeless, rain down newness of life so that we can stand up and walk… redeemed by your son Jesus Christ. For it is in his name that we pray. Amen.
