preacherman Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 I think of a simple story that I heard several years ago to close with…………it tells of an awful typhoon that hit off the eastern coast of Indonesia. The storm wreaked havoc on the island. Homes were destroyed, lives were lost, and lifestyles were changed forever! After the storm subsided, a little girl walked down the beach and discovered that the storm washed up, what seemed like, hundreds of thousands of starfish onto the shore. Her heart broke for these helpless little starfish; and so, one by one, she began tossing them back in the ocean! An elderly man watched the little girl for several hours. Finally he walked up to her and said, “You foolish little girl. Do you think that you are going to save all of these starfish? Do you think that what you are doing will really make a difference?” The little girl held up a starfish, looked to the man and said, “Sir, maybe not, but to THIS ONE, it makes all the difference in the world!” Hey guys! What an opportunity that we have to make in a child's life! Let's make sure that we do everything that we can to make a difference in a child's life when we can!
