So I'm in Human Experience class (literally... I'm still in class!). We are doing final presentations today. I presented mine one week ago, and normally when someone gives a presentation, I assume that everything that was said will be forgotten a couple days later. But i was just proven wrong. In my presentation, I explained how I can be walking on Scholars Walk and see a person but have no idea what is really going on in their head. I don't know their past or their pains. And when I hear people speak, I am often surprised. I challenge everybody to really get to know people instead of immediately judging them (and I will be the first to admit that I am terrible at this)
But that is another point. My point here is that a guy stood up today to give his presentation and referenced what I had said in mine a week ago. This guy is the type of guy that gets drunk, comes to class with a hangover, and doesn't try in school. He didn't make a PowerPoint for his presentation just because he didn't want to. He was the last person I would have expected to remember something I said. He didn't remember who said it, but that doesn't matter.
It's not that I wanted him to remember this point, but it just reminded me that PEOPLE DO LISTEN. What we say matters. This guy didn't remember me...he remembered what I said. So let's use our words for God. Let's put Him in more conversations. It will make a difference. It will be GOD using us to make a difference.
What better way to spend our lives than to let God use us?
