God loves everyone, so how am I supposed to feel special? Not that he shouldn't love everyone, but I feel so insignificant in this world.

Look into the mirror. Look into your eyes. See that beautiful soul in there? That's you. That's Love. You ARE Love.

Not knowing your specific circumstances, I will suggest a few ways to help you experience God's love for you.
1) Read the Bible, especially the New Testament, the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) to see how Jesus expressed the love of God and what he prayed in John 17, not only for His 12 disciples but for all of us who believe in Him.
2) If you aren't regularly attending a church or fellowship of believers, it is essential. We all need encouragement from one another because of the battles we face in this world. We also receive the love of God through fellowship with other Christians.
3) Spend time praying and sharing your own feelings and concerns for others. This is communicating with God and, along with the other two steps, it is most essential to knowing who we are and God's plan and purpose for our lives. If you find it hard to pray, perhaps you could try writing out your prayers in a journal. Although I can pray, I have difficulty falling asleep and this really helps me a lot.
Bless you, dear. I hope this helps, because I know God loves you, greatly. Jesus died so that you could know God's love.

There is no God. Face your fear. Stop wasting your life. Religon Kills. The Bible makes no sense when logic is apllied. Search your fealings. If God was real, wouldn't we incorporate his teachings into our laws to save oursaelves. We dont because its not real. Why cant God ever make a Miracle we can prove. He never heals amputees. He only heals people that go to the Dr. Why go to the Dr. If he is the one saving your life. He is not. Science is. If you were having a heart attack would you pray to god or call 911. You would probably do both. Which would really save your life. I think you know. Why do religous people beleive Science and History fully until it proves thier religon wrong. Then they dont beleive that part of Science or History. When the proof is staring you right in the face and the only thing keeping you from beleiving it is fear. Fear of eternal damnation. Or probably fear that this is all we get. If this is all we get and there is no afterlife. Why waste it on fairy tales we know deep down are stupid and ancient and impart false logic in our heads.

well that comes from a lack of self esteem and the devil is trying to take you away from God and His love God loves everyone but His love for you is so special and He wants you to stay with Him we all feel like we are a speck yet we can all do something good for our fellow man and for this world and we do not have to be known or famous to feel special in fact God like us to do good stuff for others that no one knows about as long as God knows no one else is important if you pray and live for Jesus he will help you feel better about yourself

You gotta do as I have to do... you got to let Christians come in and hug you and let others express their care for you.
You should look at my questions... I struggle too. But I am slowly healing. I am letting God work through people and learning to open up and let God heal me. I have to cry out my pain and release it over time... and so will you.
Depending on where you live I can give you some resources that will help you as has helped me. Maybe we can be friends and help each other. You can email me anytime.

That's the whole thing my dear. Understanding that God loves everyone equally. It sort of puts it all in perspective doesn't it. If we don't feel any more special than anyone else it helps us to realise how special they are and treat them that way instead of selfishly looking to be a 'precious person'. If we treat them specially well that is God caring for them through us. Then, as in all things, what's sent round goes round and it will come back to you through someone else. My wife and I constantly say, as a matter of faith, when we do something for someone else, "don't pay it back, pay it forward"........it's God's special way of creating a caring community.
If you wish to be treat as special, then treat others that way. The Bible says "do unto others as you would have them do unto you".
Lotsa love in God's love

There is no god, the only thing special about you is that there is no one else like you, and in the grand scheme of things, none of us is significant.
Bring your own meaning to your life, don't look for it outside of yourself. The true self is in the meaning we bring to our lives, because without bringing meaning into our lives, they are meaningless.
Make your world. Don't just live in it.

Empowerment is a wonderful tool of our consciousness. We can and do talk to our own consciousness in strength and power. In that way we become as worthy as the next guy and can feel our place in the universe.

I am insignificant except to those few who love me. That is enough for me.
