There's an old song sung by a then very young Michael Jackson that I love listening to because of its simple but rich lyrics. The world and all it's problems are too big for even great leaders of nations to overcome. But love (for our Lord) starts with small steps.. and "we still can change some things today, in our small way".
IN OUR SMALL WAY
Empty words are not enough
Where there's hurt, we'll be a crutch
When there's thirst, we'll fill each other's cup
Because we care, we love enough to share
In despair we'll be the hope
And the prayer that frees the soul
We'll be there to share each lonely road
Because we love, I know we care enough
Just a little time is all it takes
What a difference just a smile can make you'll see
Love is all we need
Maybe you and I can't do great things
We may not change the world in one day
But we still can change some things today
In our small way
