This morning I was watching one of my favorite tv shows, “The West Wing” . I was so upset when they ended it. Anyway… there is a great quote that I wanted to share.
One of the president’s staff was saying that he thought he had an idea but if it were that good of an idea someone would have already thought of it. The president in return said… I find that statement to be false.
So… as it pertains to my life…
As the Action Director for the church it is my job to find opportunities in the city for outreach and come up with ways to be the hands and feet to people who need it. Also to encourage those people to Forward that love to someone else. I am always trying to think of new ways to do this. Another outside the box way to spread love in this city. But everything I can think of seems trivial or just not the right way to do it.
After hearing this quote on the TV, I have decided to change my outlook…
Yes, there are a lot of people out there that have great organizations and are reaching many people.
-but-
There are still people that are not being reached.
There are a lot of ideas that no one has thought of yet. And it’s usually a lot more simple than you think.

I’d love to get together with you guys and just brainstorm some more ways that we can get out there and be more visible.
