Just Do It...

"Knowing Jesus changes things so that a person can't just sit back in a comfortable
lifestyle and do nothing while others swallow lies or are persecuted. Knowing Him
means being a constant witness of the Truth and a constant catalyst of change for a
better world and for the Kingdom. Whether it is on a large scale or a small scale,
those who belong to Jesus make a difference." ~Henri Nouwen

"Many persons have a wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose."
~Helen Keller
Keller, like 'the Stone the builders rejected' has a wonderful vision for happiness. God has provided many 'worthy purposes' in our earthly lives for a happy existence. 'Just do(ing) it' is the key.

Great quote! Determining what our purpose is and single-mindedly working toward it is definitely the key to making an eternal difference in the world!
