Are you making an impact?

I can still see his smile. A good looking young man, his muscles bigger and more defined than you would expect at his young age. He loved life, loved to make people laugh, and he was always in motion.


My faith tells me that, because of Jesus' death and resurrection, I will enter heaven some day. My 13 year old friend will be hiding behind the pearly gates; and as I am looking around in the awesome of eternity, he will sneak up and scare me....then run (or fly) away and he will want me to chase him.


I always think of him, but especially when I allow myself to get down or to tired to do something. I think of him and what he would have done, if given time. He seemingly was never tired, he wanted to make the most of his day -- and boy did he. He had an impact on people in his 13 years that most of us won't reach if given 100.


You have been given time on this earth...are you having an impact? Are you too busy worrying about what you don't have instead of taking care of what you do possess? He seemed to make it a goal to make people's day. If we all had the same goal, society would be a much better place. Stay Tuned.
