Making life count!

One of my goals in life is to make a difference in people's lives that God has put me around! I want my life to count....I want to use my influence to make a difference for Christ! As I was reading Wild Goose Chase by Mark Batterson, I found a story that will forever mark me!!

A missionary named A.W. Milne felt called to a tribe of headhunters in the New Hebrides. All of the other missionaries to this tribe had been martyred, but this did not stop Milne from going. He lived among the tribe for the 35 years and never returned home. When the tribe buried him, this was written on his tombstone........(page 149)

"When he came there was no light. When he left there was no darkness."
