at last a confession in an effort to be globally focused i lost sight of whats in front of me the locally hopeless my ulterior motives got the best of me now heres the rest of me trying to reach the thousands but ignoring my community resentment to group self preservation began fueling me the fool in me i thought i had it figured out now its time to live it out what if i could touch one what if i could do for one what i would do for thousands what if i was more present in the moment thats surrounding cause the present is where the presences of my god is found in so i gotta be more present and present this hope serve and give when im asked to do when i part we spoke about changing this world one life at a time if i touch one you touch one thats two lives on the line and two turns into four and four turns into eight and eight turns into 40 cause more people relate and before we have time to slow down and think and just wait wed have touched a couple more thousand by speaking his grace not just speaking but breathing and being his hands so that the love of jesus could reach the most deviant man whos far from god could be saved and be in his plan cause i was right there when someone reached out when i couldnt stand on my own not just a hand out but a hand up its not about pity really helping somebody stand up every scorner every street corner in our city in our block in our region call it the hope committee so may this hope be pervasive may this hope reach the nations when me and you are long gone may this be the way they remember us throughout the ages its amazing that god used us to touch lives and bring changeits beyond big lights and big stages building platforms to be famous having lots of money so that you can have lots of friends but you cant take none of that with you in the end all that matters is who we touch on this side of eternity and whats in front of us is where we begin all that matters is who we touch on this side of eternity and whats in front of us is where we begin lets begin
