Make A Difference

God again encouraged me and spoke through the message at church this morning. Here are my notes from it.

Pastor Tim started by saying "You will influence everyone who comes into your life. How will you impact or influence?"

Our lives make a difference, we were CREATED, SAVED, AND CALLED to make a difference.

You can look at these scriptures, if you want.
Created: Matthew 25:34-40, Genesis 12:2, Psalm 139:16, and Jeremiah 29:11
Saved: Ephesians 2:8-10
Called: Esther 4:14 and Romans 8:28

Which of the two kingdoms will you make a difference for? The Kingdom of Light or Darkness?

Interesting that when I came home later and read Our Daily Bread for today the scripture went right along with this from church. Acts 26:17-18; I now send you, to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light....

God does have a plan and NO ONE can stop Him. If we choose not to follow or be a part. We miss out.

This is what was said that got to me the most:
When you belong to God..GOD HAS PUT YOU WHERE YOU ARE NOW AND IN YOUR OBEDIENCE YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE..

He has put you there for "...such a time as this..." (Esther 4:14)

The question is will you join Him? Will you invest yourself in this opportunity God has given in order to make a difference, no matter what the cost?

After all, we have been BLESSED to be a BLESSING....
