Sometimes it can be hard for those seeking social justice to continue their mission if they feel that they are not making a difference. I know how that is, but I'm here to tell you not to give up or lose hope! Maybe you can't always see how your efforts helped another person, but rest assured that you have made a difference in someone's life. Today, I saw proof that I am able to make a difference.
For those of you who have been following my blog, you may remember a blog post about homelessness entitled "Dribbling (and other) Lessons with Mr. D." The homeless man from this post, Mr. D, was at my church today! I never thought I would see him again. He remembered me, smiled at me and commented that I seemed to be doing better (today I was walking, rather than using my wheelchair). He seemed to be doing well too; he had cut his hair, gained a little weight, had on warm clothes, etc. I used to worry so much about him, and it was nice to know that he is doing relatively well.
Readers, never doubt that you are making a difference! Good luck with your missions and God bless!
