A
life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives. - Jackie
Robinson
There
is incredible power in the arts to inspire and influence. - Julie Taymor
You
never know when a moment and a few sincere words can impact a life forever. –
Zig Ziglar
Last
week, I recapped my New York City excursion and want to highlight one thing
that I did not discuss. Lynette Lewis
did not set out to directly influence my life, but she changed the trajectory
of my life because she pursued her purpose in life and her dreams. What is also interesting is that I have a friend
in Texas that heard me speak about personal purpose statements a number of
years ago in my small group and she texted me about her personal purpose
statement the Sunday I was leaving for New York. Lynette Lewis has not only impacted my life,
but also the many other people that have read my blog and attended the small
group I led.
We
live our lives day to day and should strive to accomplish our purpose in life. Based on my experience, we will not know
until later in life or we may never know who we have impacted. If you need a good movie to remind yourself
of this, watch It’s A Wonderful Life.
George Bailey changed so many lives in Bedford Falls, but did not know
until Clarence (the angel) revealed it to him.
Tomorrow,
is the first blank page of a 365 page book.
Write a good one. – Brad Paisley
CHALLENGE: I love the above
quote from Brad Paisley because we are about to embark on another year. 2018 is going to be awesome and we have
another opportunity to continuing writing our story and impact people’s lives
along the way!
