This Christmas season, it is my goal to try and "Pay it Forward".
Let me explain.
In the movie, "Pay It Forward", a seventh grade class was given an assignment which required them to think of something that could change the world, and put that into action. A little boy, Trevor tried his best to complete this assignment. He came up with a movement, Pay it Forward. It started with him. He had to do something nice for 3 other people. It had to be something huge- something that that person couldn't do for themselves. Then the process goes on. Those three people pay it forward to three more people, and so on. From doing things like giving a hobo a place to live and some money, to giving a total stranger your car after theirs was crashed, Trevor's movement started in Las Vegas, Nevada and made it all the way to Los Angeles, California. This truly can change the world.
Now it is my turn to act. This Christmas I would encourage you all to try and find people throughout the day to help. It doesn't have to be something big, like giving them your car, but maybe, you could make an impact in their lives. That is what Christmas is all about. Christ payed it forward for all of us. He did something that we cannot do on our own. He atoned for our sins, and without Him, we can't make it back to our Heavenly Father. So now it is our turn to pay Him back by paying it forward.
