We all want to know we have a part to play in this life.  We want to leave a mark.  I imagine that most of us want to do so in a positive way. Some have chosen to have a child to carry on a family name, creating a business that will outlive them, writing books or composing music,  teaching, and so many more possibilities are available to us.  There are endless ways we can make a mark by which we will be remembered.  What we do not realize is we are leaving a mark by who we are being in our every day life.  This mark is created by a series of points we make one moment at a time.  It may not seem to register and we may think we are invisible but our existence tells us God has a point he wants to make through us.  She has created us as points of love.  Sometimes we are aligned with that, other times we are off doing our own thing.  We can get caught up in focusing on how we will make a mark that we lose touch with God’s point.  It is not as though God would never have us make a lasting mark, but perhaps today that best way to do so is to make a point of being wherever we are.  We negate our presence if it does not have a result because we think we cannot show its worth.  To the person who is on the receiving end of your look in the eye, saying of their name, or simple acknowledgment of their presence, your point is very important.  We all know the reverse of feeling over looked and invisible.  We know what it is like to be discounted or invalidated.  What if today you could be the one to point out someone else’s existence as valid?  How many points is it worth to you?
