Life-giving people make an enormous impact in subtle ways. Chris Hodges
Are you a life-giver? If you are you probably don't know it. Most life-giving people are totally unaware that they are making a difference in the lives of others. And if they are told they are they wonder about it, seem confused by it, etc. See life-giving people are just doing what comes "naturally" to them. Did you know we are all created to be life-givers? And yet some of us, too many of us really, are actually sucking the life out of people. I call them "hoovers". :) We give life in a million different but usually very small and subtle ways. We can also suck the life out of people in very small and subtle ways. We all have within us the potential to make an enormous impact, it is up to us what kind of impact to make.
I don't know about you but I would prefer to be known as a life-giver rather than a hoover. I mean right? Who wants to be known for sucking the life out of people because of negative attitude or behaviors, high maintenance personality, critical spirit, poor work ethic, etc etc? Doesn't it sound better to be known for having an optimistic outlook, grateful heart, a compromising attitude, etc etc? It's up to you, daily, to decide if you are going to make a deposit or a withdrawal in the lives of others. Choose your impact wisely.
