Today, you and I will quickly take a peep at the topic "What Are You Doing That's Making A Difference?". Just like I have read times and times again that the ultimate goal in life is not happiness but how much change or value you have added to your life and community, that's same way I have been thinking of ways that I can make genuine difference that creates usefulness and in the long run make me happy.
However, it all boils down to a simple question. What are you actually doing that's making a difference. What are you putting your hands into that's changing lives and destiny's forever. What measures have you out in place to make life comfortable for other?. In economics, Utility they say is the maximum satisfaction that can be derived from the consumption of a good or service. Then that takes us to how much utility do people get from the value you render. If we stay here, we will keep asking questions. The of course, what's the right thing to do?
Trust me, the world is changing day after the other. A lot of things are being invented, major technological strides have been taken, some of these changes are destructive while some of them are very useful but however, the most important question is what side are you on and what impact are you making in your society.
If you look at the world today , you will discover that there are so many challenges and problems . They are so numerous that you can't begin to our them. So why don't you just pick one and solve it?. There is the problem of poverty and hunger in the world, bad leadership, wrong mindset of followers and you can go on and on. This is where someone like @Sirknight comes in. @Sirknight has discovered that there so many problems in the world today but do you know what he did?, He simply picked the one He can solve. So you will realise that if we all pick just one problem from all the problems of the world, we are making a difference.
Sirknight is a leader worth emulating whether you agree with me or not. I have been working with him for some few months now as his right hand man and I have come to see Him as someone that doesn't believe in talking too much but in action. He singularly picked the problem of hunger and poverty. He has been very supportive to a lot of minnows in the community. Likewise, he supported a lot of young children who didn't have the opportunity to enjoy father and motherly care here in Nigeria. You can check out @druids blog for the charity initiative. Incase you don't know, SirKnight has been of tremendous support to me even before I was named apostle. He loves people who workhard and want to make meaning out of their lives. He loves people or individuals who want to make impact in their lives and their community or the society at large.
@Sirknight loves to make people smile and supports every initiative that goes towards that direction. He has made a lot of people self sufficient and he is still very much doing it in the @farms initiative handled by brother Abiye. He is making life meaningful for people and I personally for one has grown my leadership qualities to a far greater extent than it was, just by getting in contact with this great Knight.
Therefore, if you want to make a difference in life, just don't stress yourself too much trying to solve every problem in this life, just pick one of the problems which you know you have a heart and will to fight and defeat and go head on with it. Just as God not give us a problem that will outweigh us, then you don't really need to pick a problem that will outweigh you too.
The most regrettable life you can ever live is after your death, you discovered you have not contributed anything to make life meaningful and useful to and for others. This can be very disheartening. Some people think they must do something really really big but that's not the point all the time. You can have that kind of dream to do something so great that will change the lives of others forever but however start small. Nobody dares climb a ladder from the top.
As you go on making little minor but useful changes in your life and in the life of others, you will discover that these so called little changes add up to become reasonably significant to the life of others and the society at large. Therefore to end this, just like @SirKnight has picked the problem of driving poverty and hunger from the world, you also are to pick just one problem in the world and seek to change or work on it for the better.
Thanks for stopping by at my blog.
Warm regards
'No regrets' is what us mice say Brother Owoblow. Just take up the challenge and run with it. Good post.
Beautiful reply @mices
Thanks for your continued support
OSYou don’t have to know a lot of things in order to make a huge difference for the Lord in the world. But you do need to know a few things that are great and be willing to live for them and die for them. People that make a difference in the world are not people who have mastered a lot of things. They are people who have been mastered by a very few things that are very, very great. If you want your life to count, you don’t have to have a high IQ and you don’t have to have a high EQ. You don’t have to be smart. You don’t have to have good looks. You don’t have to be from a good family or from a good school. You just have to know a few basic, simple, glorious, majestic, obvious, unchanging eternal things and be gripped by them and be willing to lay down your life for them, which is why anybody in this crowd can make a world wide difference, because it isn’t you. It is what you are gripped with.
If we keep following the majority in the same direction, we might find it difficult to really make difference.
If we keep focusing on what our leaders we do for us, we might not make difference.
If we keep depending on the government to do things for us, we might not make difference.
But if we have the love of God and the love of people in mind, it will be easy to correct wrongs and make difference in our life journey.
I keep wondering the types of person @sirknight is, he is humble and he is always ready to help and always do things that will cost him something without considering his own conveniency or reward but rather he want everybody to be happy and he love spreading the love of Christ to people and he want the gospel to spread all over the word.
We just have to take it upon ourselves as a responsibilities to impact the world and never leave the world the way we met it.
For me, I discovered that in life, making a difference is all that matters, people like Michael Faraday are remembered for their relentless sacrifices in mankind's progress of today, sometimes it takes something extraterrestrial to make a legend, and @sirknight is a living legend, the one who truly deserves the title lord of STEEM, because it takes selflessness and spirit of human consciousness to be different.
In my bid to make a difference, I use to teach a few high school student literature classes for free, when I take a break from steemit however it's quite small, but I'm making a difference in my own way, which I hope to continue doing.
Amazing impacting message today OS, this is wonderful.
In life, we will be remembered for two things (the problems we create and the one we solved)
Making difference is understanding how important living life to impact others is. The more we have the love of others in mind, the more we will be willing to impact the lives of others and make difference even when others are doing things that will benefit them.
There is a saying that "if you can't beat them, join them" I have never for once supporting the saying but my own ideology is that " If you can't beat them, stand out". it is when you stand out that you will be able to do those extraordinary things that will impact the lives of people and that will also make God happy.
@sirknight is a blessing to this community and the whole world, he has the love of God and people at the center of his heart that is why all what he is after is how to impact the lives of people while doing what makes God happy.
One person can create lasting change only if they are bold enough. Change begins with you and me, to change the world you need to change yourself first, impact positively to people around you, living In service to others, be sincere, love unconditionally, be kind. I dedicate one of my post to @sirknight but was unnoticed. the Knight is changing the world. truly one man can change the world
www.steemchurch.net
DM@SirKnight be a good example of how a man can change the story if he proposes it, every day, I try to learn more about him to be better every day.
We all need to make decisions that will cause a difference none will forget in a lifetime

OSSTEEMCHURCHThanks for the nice write up @owoblow, I agree that @sirknight has made a lot of difference to quite a lot of people here. When I first joined steemit, I was kinda lost but my good friend @prinxeton told me about steemchurch and how our able leader sirknight has really made a difference and now through his influence I am now part of this very beautiful family. I can only say a big thank you to sirknight and my steemchurch family. I will forever be in your debt.
Apostle you've said it all.
My short time in steemchurch has been eventful, I've learnt so much about sacrifice, compassion and selfless love. SIRKNIGHT has been an example worth emulating.
Only someone with the mind to put smile on someone's face can establish the projects we see today (@farms). Let's take a pause and think it through, how many people cares about people they don't even know? A question we should ask ourselves individually.
Life is not always about us, but our impact in others. Setting an example worth emulating is the best legacy anyone can leave by. Thank you Apostle.
We all need to live to make impact in our society and the world at large taking a clue from @sirknight.
@farms is already feeding the world and first #ssat is coming up on Saturday with the aim of eradicating unemployment. All thanks to @sirknight
Just as you have said, he has made lots of people sufficient and i believe i happen to be one of them.
I pray God strengthen him to do more and more.
He is really a good example to us, and that's how a good leader should be.@sirknight have really been a great and good leader.
Indeed he ia my mentor.Yes you are right. Using @sirknight as a case study. Indeed you have to make a different in any where you are. In your office, businesses, home and and your environment.

Thanks owoblow for sharing
Warm regards Using the Amazing @sirknight is a true definition of making a difference and people happy
Living a legacy behind doesn't just happen by chance, it is birthed by rigorous self discipline. A footstep in the sands of time doesn't wipe easily.
I've seen these qualities in @sirknight and the examples he has layer down would go a long way in grooming the followers and parishioners.
First of all we human being should clearly understand the thing that by helping the society we are indirectly helping ourselves.Only after having understood this thing we can find out the means to enrich our neighbourhood ,town,state,country and world society at large. @sirknight is a man that has affected my life in a way that his humanitarian spirit has helped the society at large. He is indeed a great mentor. @owoblow-steemit is also a mentor. God bless you all.
I really share your words to @SirKnight I have meditated on what you published before writing this comment, really @SirKnight is a man of few words I do not know how it is physically, but I know that he has a great heart towards humanity, when thinking of contributing a solution to the parishioners to appease the hunger and the poverty in the communities that are close to the parishioners and at the same time motivate the Believers to collaborate with this noble cause, mainly seized by Jesus Christ who goes before us as a powerful giant in reality I admire person like him and like you. Thanks for sharing this reflection.
@owoblow, I concur that @sirknight has had a considerable measure of effect to a considerable amount of individuals here. When I initially joined steemit, I was kinda lost however my great companion @prinxeton informed me regarding steemchurch and how our capable pioneer sirknight has extremely had any kind of effect and now through his impact I am currently part of this exceptionally wonderful family. I can just say a major thank you to sirknight and my steemchurch family. I will everlastingly be in your obligation.
We as a whole need to settle on choices that will cause a distinction none will overlook in a lifetime
Similarly as you have stated, he has made bunches of individuals adequate and I trust I happen to be one of them.
I implore God reinforce him to accomplish to an ever increasing extent.
He is extremely a decent case to us, and that is the means by which a decent pioneer ought to be.
you need to make an alternate in anyplace you are. In your office, organizations, home and your condition. We can have any kind of effect by given, petitioning God for others, and parts more.
In reality he ia my tutor.
Quality and superb review
@sirknight have truly been an awesome and great pioneer. Indeed you are correct. Utilizing @sirknight as a contextual analysis. Surely @sirknight, he has committed himself to touch the life of individuals around and around the world. Utilizing the Amazing @sirknight is a genuine meaning of having any kind of effect and individuals glad Much obliged for the decent review @owoblow, I concur that @sirknight has had a great deal of effect to a considerable amount of individuals here.

I could agree more with this:
Truly, everyone of us has been predestined to add value to our world, but until we discover this individually we would scarcely make meaningful impact. And @sirknight is just a beautiful example.
kind regards.Thanks for sharing @owoblow-steemit.
