Chasidut for Pesachim 131:11

If you are very discouraged because your father and grandfather were simple people, raise your gaze up above them and look further back. Who were your ancestors from way back? The saints, the prophets, the tannaim, the amoraim, the giants and the tzaddikim. And the Gemara says (Pesachim 66a), "If Israelites are not prophets, they are the children of prophets." This is not something that was the case in the past and is no longer. Rather the Gemara is saying that is there a spark of the prophets in you and in every Jewish lad also now. But it is up to you to search for it and reveal it in yourself.
