It just takes one

What if we moved
What if we wandered
Took a reckless ride to the other side of the tracks
What if we knew somebody’s story
Would we write them off like a number on a check

Or could we be the only souls
Who take the time to love and find
The beauty in a nameless face

(It just takes one)
It just takes one
One to step out from the crowd,
And show what love is all about
One, (it just takes one)
To change a life forever, touch the world
And make it better
(it just takes one)

So what if we moved with no hesitations
And learn to love the least of these without reserve
Let’s spark a change in this generation
And let our actions speak louder than our words

And what if there’s a world in need of hope
That only we can bring
Brighter than the midday sun

(It just takes one)
It just takes one
One to step out from the crowd,
And show what love is all about
One, (it just takes one)
One To change a life forever, touch the world
And make it better
(make it better)
(it just takes one)
One(It just takes one)
It just takes one
One to step out from the crowd,
And show what love is all about
One, (it just takes one)
One To change a life forever, touch the world
And make it better

One(It just takes one)
It just takes one
One to step out from the crowd,
And show what love is all about
One, (it just takes one)
One To change a life forever, touch the world
And make it better

--It Just takes one--Addison Road

One person CAN make a difference.
Look at our Saviour. He's still impacting the world 2000 years later
But, you say, he doesn't count, he's God. Well, what about Mother Theresa? Jim Elliot and Nate Saint? Eric Liddell? Chuck Smith?

Step outside of the boundaries society drew for you. Don't be afraid to be radical.

The people I mentioned above didn't make a difference with their money or their power or their intelligence. They did it by being a willing servant with a heart for God and His people.

Whether you realy realise it or not, you have a reputation. What kind of reputation are you making for yourself?
