Just like the proverbial domino effect, in which many dominoes are lined up and when just one domino is knocked over, it begins a chain reaction having an influence on all the dominoes that have been carefully lined up intentionally for a reason, a purpose.

The Dominoes' Effect carries the same principle with people. I believe that we are here for a reason and a purpose. I believe that our individual lives impact the lives of others in our world. We have a choice on a daily basis, sometimes even moment by moment, to influence others in our world, either negatively or positively.

Without God's love in my heart, all I can give are empty excuses while I selfishly turn my ahead away from the needs of others. Oh sure, I can do good deeds, but for what? For me just to feel good sometimes because I really don't care? I have discovered that the reward can go far beyond that. My reward can be enough just knowing that God is getting what He wants. With my eyes, He can see others. With my ears, He can hear their cry. And with His heart beating in me, He can love those no one else loves.

You see, He really does care about those who are hurting, broken, starving, thirsty, in prison, and poor. Doesn't that sound just like that Jesus in the Bible? You know it does! It's my choice. It's your choice. Today, will I positively influence those around me? How? By allowing God, who is love, to love others one at a time through me! That's the Dominoes' Effect!
