ONE LIFE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
One SONG can spark a moment
One FLOWER can wake the dream
One TREE can start a forest
One BIRD can herald spring
One SMILE begins a friendship
One HANDCLASP lifts a soul
One STAR can guide a ship at sea
One WORD can frame the goal
One VOTE can change a nation
One SUNBEAM lights a room
One CANDLE wipes out darkness
One LAUGH will conquer gloom
One STEP must start each journey
One WORD must start a prayer
One HOPE will raise our spirits
One TOUCH can show you care
One VOICE can speak with wisdom
One HEART can know what’s true
AND
ONE LIFE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
COULD IT BE CHRIST THROUGH YOU?
One life – that of the Lord Jesus Christ –
made the biggest difference possible.
That one life (and one death and one resurrection)
made it possible for sinful mankind to be reconciled to a holy God.
That same life now inhabits those
who have acknowledged God’s gift of grace
and have been adopted into God’s own family
as His blood-bought children.
That same life, living within us and through us
wants to make a difference
in the lives of those with whom we come into contact.
Am I available?
Am I ready to be used to reach others?
“Lord, I believe time is running out.
I only have the “now” to reach others with Your message
of love and redemption and security.
Take me, mould me, use me; wherever, whenever, whatever.”
MEETING IN THE CLOUDS 
May we all stand as a Ministry of “one”, making a difference in the lives of others, to the glory of God! Angela, another beautiful post. May the Lord continue to use you for His glory. Thank you for making a difference in my life. God bless!

Thanks Paulette. The ministry of encouragement is very important as the body of Christ is built up, but how I yearn to see us being used more and more to “make a difference” in the lives of those who do not know the joy and peace of a life in Christ. ‘Lord, use us to reach them with Your love’

Debbie, thank you. Your “let nothing stop you today” is timely. This morning at Church I was asked to do something I was most hesitant about. Your words hit the spot.
May we all be ready, at all times, to obey His call.
