"Don't just live, change the world!"

Today as I was driving to work, God prompted me to turn on my radio to 99.5 KKLA. It was the beginning of a couple sharing about the husband's survival from the earthquake in Haiti. The husband (I'll call him Bob for now) shared about the moment during the earthquake while he was trapped in a collapsed hotel, electricity was totally out, it was pitch dark and his leg was bleeding from injury. In pain and darkness he felt alone and fear started to creep in. However, as Bob called out, he found out there are other survivors trapped near his position. He felt better, knowing he's not going through this moment alone. Bob started to pray to God, knowing his passion and fire for Him recently are not as strong as before,  One of the men was the manager of the hotel, who was a Haitian and is not really fluent with English. Long story short, Bob led everyone who were trapped in the hotel to Christ. Later he was rescued. Though this traumatic event left a huge scar on his leg, he has received the conviction to preach the message of "Don't just live, change the world!" to everyone he could reach out to.
