All we do is but drop in the ocean, but if we do not do it, the ocean will be one drop less.

~one drop matters.  my mom once gave me an analogy about pennies.  you can go to a car dealer of any type in hopes to buy a car.  if the car of your dreams is 15000... and you come with only 14999.99, they still won't let you have that car.  Every penny counts in life... one penny less is one less from the whole.  one penny more is one more to the whole.  it may seem insignificant most of the time, but when ur in a situation when u need that penny it is worth incredibly more.  Over the weekend during praise reports a lady came up and gave an incredibly testimony.  It wasn't about her but of a man she knew.  this man can be comfortable termed as a Jesus freak (a great compliment in it's own sense).  one man not afraid to proclaim his love for Jesus anytime anywhere.  During the course of one afternoon this man met a fellow man that did not believe in God.  During their meeting the one guy's devotion and love for God was so great.  The man was converted.  Following the converted man along he comes across two non practicing catholic females, and through his presence the started coming to church again.  It was a wonderful chain reaction my friend all started by one man who was not afraid to love God.  that man may have been one drop in the ocean... but if you look at life as a full cup of water.  we might be dropping water everyday.  and the cup surely fills up.  and its up to the top... as we see our actions may only be worth one drop...

it only takes one drop to overflow the cup
