In my first year of Psychology at YorkU, I remember writing a paper on whether I believed if one person can make a difference in this world. Based on my experiences with the relationships I had with people, it was easy to see that one person could make a difference in the world because multiple people made a difference in my life. When it came to people, the difference makers were very tangible to me. Interacting with humans will always have an impact on your life whether it be on a conscious or unconscious level. We are made for relationships so let us walk out our God-given design and make a difference in the lives of those we come in contact with.
We have been given the opportunity to bless Single Mothers by creating Mother’s Day Hampers, through our partners at Neighborlink. We have the opportunity to make a difference in their lives, not just with the hamper but with our interactions with them. We have an opportunity to show them what the love of God can do to a person.
The memory verse that we’ve been memorizing is:
1 John 3:16-18 (NIV)
16 This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. 17 If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? 18 Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.
Lifespring, let us not love with words and speech but with actions and in truth. Ask your LifeGroup leaders how you can be a part of blessing Single Mothers and making a difference in their world.
