YOU ARE IMPORTANT
Many people are using computers today, but perhaps many seniors are still
using the old fashioned typewriter. Suppose the letter E on your
typewriter is missing. Would it make any difference when you wrote a
letter? Oh, yes, you could understand the meaning, but it would certainly
be very strange. Here’s what it would look like. I'll substitute an X for
the missing E.
Xvxn though this typxwritxr is an old modxl, it works vxry wxll xxcept
for only onx kxy. You’d think that with all thx othxr kxys working, onx
kxy would hardly bx noticxd. But just onx kxy out of whack sxxms to ruin
thx wholx xffort.
Havx you xvxr said to yoursxlf, "I’m only onx pxrson. No onx will noticx
if I don’t do my bxst." But it doxs makx a diffxrxncx, bxcausx to bx
xffxctivx, a family, an organization or a businxss nxxds complxtx
participation by xvxryonx to the bxst of his or hxr ability.
So if you’rx having onx of thosx days whxn you think you just arxn’t vxry
important and you’re txmptxd to slack off, rxmxmxmbxr this old
typxwritxr. You arx a kxy pxrson and important in God’s work. Whxn you
don’t do your bxst, nothing xlsx around you works out thx way God
plannxd.
Starting right now, plxasx rxmxmxbxr, God nxxds you to bx your bxst xvxry
day.
