Life is such a precious and valuable gift that it grieves my heart to see so many people unable to find the joy and happiness that God offers all those who will listen to His message and follow His Son, Jesus. It is so easy to get off track and discouraged by the events that surround our lives.
In his book "Quiet Strength", Tony Dungy, shares his story and the events surrounding the death of his son. Tony has a strong faith in Jesus and has tried to let God speak through his story giving people encouragement and hope to handle the difficult moments in their lives.
He concludes "Quiet Strength" with these words:
"It's been a year since I finished "Quiet Strength". The same thoughts that prompted me to write this book in the first place still are prominent in my mind: we are all role models, and we all can and should have a positive impact on someone's life. God has placed each of us where we are for a reason: within our spheres of influence at work, in our neighborhoods, in our families. He wants us to touch lives wherever He leads us."
"Whether you are a friend to a bullied boy in middle school, a ray of light in your neighborhood book club, a supportive coach for a high school team, an available shoulder to someone at a time of loss, or a hand held out to a child looking for a little hope, we all can change the course of our nation and world, one life at a time, for the rest of our lives."
May God bless your day!
Have a great day with Jesus and Be There!
