Do you ever ponder if you hadn’t met a certain person in your life, how completely different your life would be?

You know… a particular someone who has impacted you in some way? Or one who pointed you in the right direction at a crossroads in your life? Or that mentor-type person who helped you believe in yourself? Or maybe it was a group of co-workers who taught you a skill or trade which you continue to use today?

That someone is a difference maker.

My husband is one of mine. Yet, I look back on my life, and I see many who have come in and gone out, and many who have stayed, who have impacted me and my journey.

How different my life would be if our paths hadn’t crossed.

I’m one who believes these people didn’t come into my life by accident, but God brought each one at a specific time for a specific purpose. It’s good to pause and ponder these God-ordained encounters.

I also believe God is using you in the same way.

God has crossed your path with another in whom you have (or have had) a significant impact. You are making a difference in his or her life. It’s quite possible you aren’t even aware of the difference you are making.

You are a difference maker.

You are a difference maker.Your story is encouraging another.

Your experience is teaching another.

Your words are uplifting another.

Your shine is brightening another’s day.

Your grace is aiding another to forgive.

Your strength is helping another get through one more day.

Your friendship is a gift to another.

Your love is transforming another’s heart.

Your talents and gifts are blessing another.

Your bravery is spurring another on.

Your wisdom is helping another understand.

Your transparency is inspiring another to believe she’s not alone.

Yes, you are a difference maker in the lives of others.


You don’t do it to get noticed or draw attention to yourself, this is just who you are. This is who you were meant to be, and what you were meant to do.


Be encouraged, friend. Keep making that difference. Keep impacting the lives around you. Continue to allow God to work through you in being His hands, His feet, His mouth, His influence. I can imagine the blessing you receive in being a difference maker, but an even greater reward is coming.



Continue to be a difference maker.

Who could you and I bless today? Who has God placed on our paths? And since we recalled those who have made a difference in our lives, today would be a good day to tell them so.

I’m cheering you on, and praying for you today!

Much love,
