I read an interesting statistic today: If you bless just one person each day, you will impact 365 people over the course of a year.
[Wow, that’s pretty good ROI.]
Whatever talents you have, whatever capabilities you possess, use them to impact others.
It doesn’t have to be earth shattering: making copies for your kids’ overworked and underpaid teachers, ironing on some t-shirt bling for preschool staff, delivering a class snack, helping 3-year-old Sis pass out homemade valentines to passers-by…
Business people call it “leveraging your influence.” We say “blessed to be a blessing.”
And–BONUS!–there’s even a reward-of-sorts in it for you:
“Those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed” (Proverbs 11:25).
So if you are looking for a little fuel for your spirit today, one action step to take, maybe look for opportunities to pour into the lives of others?
Thanks for the simple but strong reminder!
