Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.

Used to be when new folks came to our neighborhood we welcomed them, made friends, greeted them with homemade bread or a meal . . . we all got along and lasting, valued relationships were created.
Jesus did NOT seek 12 with pedigrees.
He invited the tired, sweaty, ordinary 12 who said YES
and taught them how to change the world!

To repeat another’s words
rather than my own
is the same
as wearing a borrowed hat,
or chasing someone else’s dream.
In order to change the world
for the better
I must be authentic
to do my part.
I am a unique creation of the Most High!
His plan .. . His gifts . . .are best.

Someone referred to me as kind the other day and my initial reaction was “wow, I thought he loved me.” Amazing how this world’s misuse of words and acts can change things (he does love me) . . . but this quote says it so well:
– Sylvia Rosetti –
Our priest told a great sermon today. God wants to give us the best. We need empty hands and we don’t always leap eagerly to relinquishing our hold on our stuff in order for Him to be able to give us what more and better He has. “It’s simple.” God will help us . . . we can turn to Him with our fears . . . change . . . it is scary sometimes, but oh, when we let Him work through us and fill us with His grace . . . we can. Favorite quote from the sermon? “Even an acorn can find a way to roll down the street.” As I read the following quote, the changes God can help us with . . . the “yes, but what can I do” and the “my small effort . . . will it really matter?” Those thoughts all came together with a resounding Yes I can make a difference!
Let’s do this, shall we? Not just for ourselves. . . let’s do it for the children!
