MAKING A DIFFERENCE was on my mind, when all of a sudden I became aware that “MAKE A DIFFERENCE Reduce Re-use Recycle” was written on the shopping bag which was sitting right in front of me.
Type “Make a difference” into the SEARCH box on this blog and you find four posts dealing with the subject of MAKING A DIFFERENCE.
We are told “Make a difference in your community.” We are asked “Want to make a difference in your community?”
“MAKE A DIFFERENCE”
Let me tell you about the people all over the world who make a difference for good in the world.
Those people are praying like Murray McCheyne: “Lord, make me as holy as it is possible for a child of Thine to be.”
They pray that they may be –
1. HOLY IN BODY (Romans 12:1)
2. HOLY IN PRAYER (First Timothy 2:8)
3. HOLY IN WORSHIP (First Peter 2:5)
4. HOLY IN CITIZENSHIP (First Peter 2:9)
5. HOLY IN HEART (First Thessalonians 3:13)
I also belong to those people.
Holy (HAGIOS) means that which is sacred, set apart, consecrated.

“NEXT TO THE MIGHT OF GOD, THE SERENE BEAUTY OF A HOLY LIFE IS THE MOST POWERFUL INFLUENCE FOR GOOD IN THE WORLD.”
