I want to make an impact. I will just be honest and tell you - I want my life to count! I heard it said one time that if you want to make an impact you have to be committed to the collision. I want to make a difference in the life of my children. I want to make a difference in the people I meet on an ordinary day around town. I want to make a difference in the life of the people that God has blessed me to pastor.
It is so easy to live life and never understand that you were created for so much more than just existing. I want to show others that there is a better way to fulfill the purpose of life God has given to each one of us. So I awoke this morning with all this running through my brain (as small as it is) and I just wonder if I am living my life in such a way that others are impacted.
I definitely do not want to get to the other end of my life and realize then that I just lived never really "Living." Jesus said that He came to give ABUNDANT LIFE! That sounds pretty good but I fear sometimes we get used to "life" and do not really go after the abundance Jesus spoke of. I want to stand out in a crowd! I want to speak in a way that brings people closer to the things of God and God himself. I dont want to just float through life because that is what others are doing. I want my kids to see I believe in God and I believe in His word and that it is what we do for Christ that will last. I dont know, maybe I am not making sense but I have tasted of the good things to come and I cant settle for normalcy, lets just get by, why rock the boat mentality. I want to LIVE and I want God to LIVE in me and I want to make a difference. Thanks for reading if you get this far.
