One of the things that can cause real problems in the area of communication and leadership is this thing called assumption. When we make an assumption, we jump to form a conclusion about someone or something without solid evidence or proof. We all know that sometimes people and situations aren’t always what they appear to be. A few examples would be:

1. We see a disheveled person and we assume they are homeless or a drunkard.
2. We see a person without a wedding ring on and assume they are single or divorced.
3. People from the North are unfriendly.
4. All Southerners lack intelligence.

“Teach us to number our days alright, that me may gain a heart of wisdom.” Ps 90:12

Why does it take tragic and major life events to wake us up to what is really important in life? Maybe it is human nature. Yesterday, we received word that a young man we knew had been killed in an automobile accident. Suddenly, the world stops and all the questions flood your mind. Why and why now? What a tragedy, a young man in his twenties, engaged to be married gone from this life and the ones he loved. Once again life has a way of waking us from our slumber and indifference and reminding us what is really important and how fragile life really is.

The story of Susan Boyle on ‘Britains Got talent” show is sweeping the nation and it is the kind of feel good story that most of us like and can celebrate. We always like it when the unlikely happens. When Susan Boyle took the stage, the last thing the judges and audience expected was for her to succeed. Based on her appearance alone she was a very unlikely candidate. Here was a rather homely woman in her forties from an obscure village aspiring to be a great singer. Who was she anyway? Many were no doubt bracing for some uncomfortable moments.

I received an Easter ecard from a Facebook friend.  I have never met this person face to face but it really touched me in a profound way.  I am reminded once again that often it is not the big things in life that impact people as much as the small behind the scenes gestures of kindness and love.  I believe these small acts and gestures really do make a difference and make the world a better place one small act at a time.  Mother Teresa said “we can do no great things, only small things with great love.”  I think she was right!

Bill Montgomery once said that one of the most important things in life is to decide what is the most important thing? That is sound advice. How many people really do that or take the time to give it any thought? Many of the difficulties we face in life are because we have not taken the time to decide what is really important to us and what we value. Therefore, we do not know what our values are and our life reflects that.
