Did you know, do you understand, that because of you, life is better, and your life is a result of making this world different.

Did you know, do you understand, that because of you, life is better, and your life is a result of making this world different. You matter. You make a difference. You change this world. Thus, because of you and the impact on this world it is important to let your light shine. Because of who you are, what you say, how you act, the people around you are forever changed. Matthew 5:16 reads, “In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven” So today, make a good impact on this world and those around you. Open a door for another person? Buy someone coffee? Call a friend in need? Say “Hello” to a stranger? Let someone merge onto the highway? Be kind, be polite, and if you cannot say anything nice, don’t say anything at all. Because of you and what you say and how you act, your light, your being just might make another person’s day for the better. Sometimes the good deed we do may be what the other person needed! It is something to think about. God Bless. Amen.
