    "I want my life to make a difference in this world."  Have you ever thought that?  I sure have!  I'm going to share the story of someone who made a huge difference.  In many ways, there's nothing incredible or extraordinary about this story; in fact, the "difference maker" probably has little or no idea of the impact he had, but from the other person's perspective, well, it's a whole different story.

    My parents were blessed and they taught me that your good things/blessings are meant to be enjoyed by others.  If you know Jesus Christ, you are blessed.  Why wouldn't we want to share our blessings.
    Acts 1:8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.

    Share Your PRESENCE
    As I grew up, my parents always taught me to be careful who I hung out with.  They took me to church every week, and I learned that this was where I wanted to be every Sunday.  
    Luke 4:16
    He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue,
    as was his custom
    . And he stood up to read.
