Walk with Christ

Day 8

Read John 10:1-18

Do you know Christ's voice? When you pray do you stop to listen? Today take time to heed the promptings of the Holy Ghost. Act on those little impressions that you think will not make a difference. A phone call to a friend, a smile to an unfriendly face, all those things can make a difference.

Making a Difference

from "Walking the Talk Together:

One day a man was walking along the beach when he noticed a figure in the distance. As he got close, he realizsed the figure was that of a boy picking something up and gently throwing it into the ocean.

Aproaching the boy, he asked, "What are you doing?" the youth replied, "throwing starfish in the ocean. The sun is up and the tide is going out. If I don't throw them in, they'll die." "Son" the man said, "don't you realize there are miles and miles of beach and hundreds of starfish> You can't possibly make a difference!"

After listening politely, the boy bent down, picked up another starfish, and threw it into the surf. Then, smiling at the man, he said, "I made a difference for that one."
