Can you imagine Mario without the mustache? Hulk Hogan? Einstein? Of course not! Movember has decided to raise money for prostate cancer research through the growing of mustaches. So far they've raised over $600 (I think it's the currency in Singapore, but it's not the amount that matters). They put their efforts into making a difference.

How easy is it to convince ourselves that we can't make a difference in the world? That the world's problems are too big, too complicated, and we're too small? And yet, each of us has the capability within us to change ourselves, and also to change the lives of those around us. It could be as simple as raising money for an event in which we are participating. Perhaps it's a conscious effort to change the circumstances at your job. Maybe there is one individual whom you would like to work with.

We can all change the world, one person at a time. We just have to decide to begin, and recognize that any small effort is one step on the journey. In today's world, people might ridicule Christ for choosing to work with only twelve people. Yet look what he did with that number on Pentecost... the world has never been the same since. God can do amazing things through us if we step aside and let him work!
