You are someone’s answered prayer. Your action, your faith, your fire. All that’s required is showing up. You may not be a college quarterback. You may not be a national championship coach. You don’t need to be. All you need is to get close to those around you and pay attention to your heart. Feel someone else’s pain. Experience your own. Sit with it, process it, feel it. Then follow it.
There will be things in your life that make you angry. Things that make you sad. Whatever those things are, don’t ignore them. Feel the pain, the sadness, the frustration, and let it remind you that you were made for more. You were meant to take your pain and turn it into purpose. Life was never meant to be easy. The American dream—two kids, a nice house—isn’t the answer. It will never satisfy. What will satisfy is following your fire. Taking a risk. Addressing injustice. Those things that make you feel? Feel them. Every emotion that comes. Talk about it. Speak it out loud. Process it, whether by yourself or with people you trust and who love you. Give it to God. Ask him what you should do. Ask him where you should go.
I believe that once we discover the fire that drives us, we’ll be able to heal the people and places around us. And maybe, just maybe, we’ll experience healing along the way as well. Broken yet beautiful, beaten but bold.
Prayer
Lord, help me to get over my fears. Help me to process and address my emotions. I want to be a light in this world. I want to show up in and around the lives of the people you have put in my path. Help me to stop fearing man and start trusting you. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Even though the brokenness of the world may seem overwhelming, anyone with the courage to follow their passion and become a light—in their homes, communities, and churches—can bring real change. And when we all embrace our God-given gifts as changemakers, a better world is within our grasp.
