Ep 873 – Luke 4:31-32

We all want to make a difference in this life. It's hardwired into us. In fact, most of us long for a sense of accomplishment and hate the idea of living our life with nothing to show for it when we're done. And, that sense of impact and influence should be especially true for those who claim to be followers of Christ. We are to live with a sense of purpose and with a desire to leave a positive impression on those with whom we live and interact in this life. Just as Jesus did when He walked this earth. Jesus was an influencer. He made a difference. His life left an impression on everyone He met. And, as His followers, we are to do the same. But to make an impact in this life, we have to model our lives after His, seeking to bear the image of God to those who need to experience the love of God.
