100 People
I’m writing this standing in line at HEB. I saw this weeks edition of Time magazine and it caught my eye. The title says, “100 People that changed the World”. It sent my mind racing.
What if…
What if my name could be on that list someday. Then the thoughts came into mind, what are you doing to change the world? Ok so maybe it won’t, but I’m certainly striving to and that’s the point.
I can give you examples of people just in the past year that have changed my world. They did it by investing in me and they believed in me. Today they still speak into my life. I’m sure I have made them shake their heads more than once, but they motivate me to be a better dad, husband, youth pastor, and cooperate manager. They are part of my 100!
My hope. My longing. My passion is that I can be someone that does that for you. It keeps me up at night at times. I write this blog then maybe they will see Jesus. If the teenager sees me being real then they will trust me. If my team members at work can see I care about about their morale than a metric, then maybe they will pay that forward to a customer. How can I influence? My ideas go on and on like that! That’s what keep me pressing forward. I want to be an influencer, that will to point you to Christ.
Maybe we will not get on the cover of Time…but can you imagine if everyone took the time to truly invest in people to change potential legacies of people moving forward. Be the change for people today. Let’s turn our worlds upside down!
