It only takes one.

One person to make a difference in the life of another.

At times, when we look at all that is wrong in the world, we feel lost. Where do we start? There is so much that needs to be done! We can’t possibly help everyone but we CAN help one. Have you ever been that ONE that has been helped? Have you ever been the ONE to help?

“In the end, the number of prayers we say may contribute to our happiness, but the number of prayers we answer may be of even greater importance. Let us open our eyes and see the heavy hearts, notice the loneliness and despair; let us feel the silent prayers of others around us, and let us be an instrument in the hands of the Lord to answer those prayers.” ~Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf, Happiness, Your Heritage ~

So many prayers are being said on behalf of the people of Haiti. I believe in the collective power of prayer. I also believe in the collective power of one + one + one doing.
