Greater impact

by Bruce Wadd

Remember the last time you went to a ‘show’…the one where there are amusement rides, agricultural displays… and the ‘fairy floss’!

Sometimes at these annual events they have the amusement sideshow where the stronger males, and sometimes females, pick up a sledge hammer, hit a large pad, trying to raise a weight to hit a bell. There’s always lots of interest, people standing around, with testosterone engulfing the crowd.

Why is that? We, as God-created beings, hunger to make an impact. Our lives seem so futile without making a difference. But somewhere deep down inside, we seem to have a desire to change something or someone that is greater and beyond ourselves.

God planted that seed. Let it grow! Yearn to make a greater impact today for God!

“Put God to the test and see how kind He is!

See for yourself the way His mercies shower down
on all who trust in Him.”

Psalms 34:8

TODAY, ask God what impact He wants you to make!
