We all have an obligation to touch some one's heart today. It is our duty to make an impact in some one's life.
Why do 7 million people a week watch his show? Why is he the most popular Christian speaker in the world?
Yesterday he appeared on a talk show in the morning and again later that day. He then gave a book signing to 400 people. His day was still not over. His last stop was at Barnes and Noble in Clifton, where people slept over the night before to get in line. As we arrived at Barnes and Noble in Clifton at 4:30, you could feel the excitement of the anticipation for his appearance. With each step closer, you could see the people light up and become overwhelmed with emotion and exhilaration.
Finally we made it to the front of the line. There he was, Joel Osteen. He had total focus and full attention on the person in front of him with absolutely no distractions. His eye contact never left the person in front of him. He radiates warmth and kindness, that you can't help but feel after being in his presence.
A women asked him, "Pastor Joel. You have had such a long day. How do you keep up this energy to do what you do." Pastor Joel said, "Well it's from meeting nice people like you."
Joel Osteen inspires his audience. What do you do for yours? People are watching you. What will you contribute to those you come in contact with. The best impact you can make, is to make a difference in some one's life. Some people care so much for others, that it's just a way of life. Others await your presence.
"What we do for each other, is what we do for ourselves."
Quote of the month: "Fear is an illusion; you think something is standing in your way but nothing is really there."

If it weren't for you I would never have had this incredible, memorable, meaningful experience. Thank you for inviting me and for being the kind of person who believes in waiting on line for 4 hours for a 20 second moment!
