sooo, in the last week or two i have had something happen to me that has me evaluating and questioning things…see, i’ve had two people contact me in some way, shape, or form and thank me for the impact i have had on their lives…WHAT??? was my first response!!!
the first person i haven’t had any contact with for at least three years!!! NONE…yet kasey and i were invited to a graduation party and away we went…i taught this guy when he was in junior high five or six years ago…all i did was lead this junior high boys “small group” discussion each week…i might have helped out for a year, two years at the most!!! after he moved on to high school i went and watched one of his freshman football games and one of his basketball games…i haven’t seen him since!!! until the graduation party…
then i have this friend of many years that i keep in contact with by way of e-mail or blogging, and an occasional phone call…he is MUCH (ha!) older than i, but more so he is much more mature in his faith…i have always considered him to be a mentor and an example that i look up to!!! there are so many times in life where i have looked to him for advice or simply asked myself what he would do in a given situation…
both of these people contact me…and thank me for the impact i have had on their lives…WHAT???
sooo…i’ve been really challenged in every situation and in every relationship…to ask what i’m bringing into it…how am i serving this person…how can i challenge this person…how can i leave…
a…
lasting impact…?
who’s life are you leaving a lasting impact in??? what kind of lasting impact are you leaving???
