Spark

"It only takes a spark, to get a fire going.  And soon all those around, can warm up in it's glowing."  (Pass It On) That's a song I remember my grandpa playing when I was young.  And, it remains one of my favorites.  So, it's been running through my head today as I've been seeing it in action. 
Last week, I talked about my plan to write something I'm thankful for everyday on facebook from now until Thanksgiving.  On Sunday, I used it as part of my lesson- explaining that technology can be used for good or evil.  And, as Christians, we should use it to spread the message of God's love and to share our faith.  So, I challenged them to join me in the "Thanksgiving Facebook Challenge."  And, when I got home and saw some new facebook statuses, I was happy.  But, what has been really great is watching it grow!  And, now I'm seeing people from all over sharing their blessings on facebook!  And, I'm guessing as they share, others that I don't even know are picking up on it!
So. it makes me stop and realize that in so many ways, we can make a difference.  Because people are watching.  And, if we all work together, it doesn't have to be impossible!

Acts 6:7

New International Version (NIV)

 ⁷ So the word of God spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly, and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.
