Developing a Heart for Big Things

Have you ever tasted a cool, refreshing Coca Cola? So have hundreds of millions of people around the world. Former president of the company, Robert Woodruff, had the boldness to state during World War II, “We will see every man in uniform gets a bottle of Coca-Cola for five cents wherever he is and whatever it costs.” When the war ended, he went on to say that in his lifetime he wanted everyone in the world to have a taste of Coca-Cola. Talk about vision! Do you have a vision of how God could use you to influence your generation?  Don’t let opportunities to share hope with others pass you by. And don’t underestimate the big ways God wants to use you to bless others and change the world. God has given you unique skills, talents, and passions and now He’s asking you to dream big. Envision the billions of people in this generation who have not accepted Jesus. Many have never even heard the message of His love. What can you do about it? It may start small at first – an outreach or luncheon of some sort. Maybe you can support more missionaries or become one yourself. Remember that God wants to use you in a big way. God doesn’t have a Plan A, Plan B, and Plan C to reach the world. He has one plan – that’s you and me. This is Andrew Palau.
