Clay in the Hands

I subscribe to several blogs and news sites by email.  So each morning, my inbox is overflowing with information begging to be read.

This morning, the subject line of one of the emails was simply – “Make a Difference.”  I clicked on it to see where this subject line might take me and it was a plea for donations to an online news site.  It is a worthy cause I know but the subject line is what has kept my mind churning this morning.

One of my foundational goals in life is to make a difference.  I want my life to count for something.

But as I have thought about these three simple words, I have been reminded that while I do want my life to matter – that tends to be a broad, “some day” idea.

The reality is, having our lives count for something will take making a difference in small (and occasionally big) ways on a daily basis.  So maybe, my motto for each day should be “Make a Difference – Today.”

How about you?  Care to join me in making a difference today?

Be a blessing!
