The past month for me has been pretty crazy, loss of loved one, illness, new job, and working hard on other goals. It’s been crazy and at some points a blur. I’m sure you have had moments in your life similar to this when you there are so many things coming your way, good and bad. Well, that’s been my life and yesterday during my devotional time I was reminded to find the small victories along the way.

His dream for us to be treated equally pushed us all and reminded us that what we do does matter. I began to think to myself, how am I making an impact. While everyone can’t be a Dr. King, Rosa Parks, or Oprah, we can all do something. We have to recognize that while some are made to do grand things, it is the small things we do that matters most.
