ARE YOU MAKING A IMPACT IN THE WORLD?

"You are the salt of the earth". "You are the light of the earth". Matthew 5:13&14. My friend, how old are you? Are you making any impact in the world ever since you born? What is the legacy you are going to leave in the world after you leave the world? Will the family, your church, friends, and the world around you has any contribution you made to remember and cherish? Let's understand that we will never be able to make a real and permanent impact on our society through legislation, programs and committees alone. Things done in the flesh in and of itself are doomed to failure- they much be done through Jesus and in power of the Holy Spirit. Are you like Lot in the Old Testament? As Lot, our faith is personal and private- we are not really interested in impacting our society, only serious about our personal peace, affluence, positions, and titles in the world. Are you the salt and the light of the world? After reading many autobiographies of great people influenced their generation and affected the world most dramatically (I realized) were those who, because of circumstance, pressure, or adversity: Challenged tide of convention, Stretched the boundaries of traditions, Violated the expectations of "status quo", Upset the mind of "the average", Shattered the wit of "the norm" and broke through the "accepted" in order to accomplish the unexpected. They all did that little extra that others thought could not be done. During this CHRISTMAS SEASON, let's make a decision to impact our generation in such a dramatic fashion because we have the strength, self- sufficiency, and anointing of the Anointed One, Lord Jesus! ISN'T HE BORN IN THIS WORLD TO SAVE US AND ANOINT US TO TURN THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN?
