Daily Reflection

“We can’t help everyone, but everyone can help someone.” (Ronald Reagan)

I’ve often found myself throughout life thinking I didn’t matter much in this world. I figured that since I wasn’t famous and not very well known I was never going to make much of a difference on this planet. But somewhere along the way, I realized all I really needed to do was help someone…anyone…just one person…and in doing so, I could make an impact on helping the entire world become a better place. Through my recovery work, I’ve done this very thing by sponsoring one individual after another, each just trying to find their way in sobriety. And outside of recovery, I’ve found it’s the little things that can have the biggest effect upon the earth, some even as small as simply listening to what someone is going through and praying with them. I’m glad I clearly see I do matter now, and all it took was helping one person after another, until I finally accepted I was helping everyone, one individual at a time.

I pray to God that I always remember I do matter in this world and that all I need to do to make a difference is help but one person, because that act alone can have a ripple effect that touches all of us.

Peace, love, light, and joy,
