In our prayers on Sunday at church, we often pray, "Help us to be a positive influence in our community for Christ." I think it is probably a good thing to pray. But praying is not where it should stop; that is where it should begin.
We need to go out into the community, find where the people are, and love them where they are at. We do not need miraculous intervention to influence the community. We need a hunger to love, to be involved in the community, and to live selflessly. It's not a miracle we need. It is a life modeled after the sacrificial life of Christ.
