While walking along the beach,
a man saw someone in the distance leaning down,
picking something up and throwing it into the ocean.
As he got closer, he saw thousands of starfish
the tide had thrown onto the beach.
Unable to return to the ocean during the low tide,
the starfish were dying.
He observed the young man picking up the starfish
and throwing it back into the water.
After wasting the seemingly futile effort,
the observer said, "There must be
thousands of starfish on this beach.
It would be impossable for you to get all of them-
There is simply too many.
You can't possibly save enough to make a diffrence."
The young man smiled as he continued to pick up
another starfish and tossed it back into the ocean.
"It made a diffrence to that one," he replied.

As each one has recieved a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
-1 Peter 4:10
They're are millions of people in the world today- we can't make that much of a diffrence. We must remember to be like the young man in this story; help reach every person you can, it makes the diffrence for them.
