Stange The Things That Make You Think

So I finally saw the movie Avatar, if you have not seen it yet a totally recommend you take a look. It is out us ( people on earth going to another plant and trying to force the people there to leave so we could get this rock that was worth a lot of money. Typical get greed factor. The thing that entreated me was the place that they lived. It was so beautiful and amazing it got me thinking about heaven. I know that this is just a very small window into the amazing wonders that God has waiting for us but I still just longed to be there. I know it sounds weird but I think that it was just the peace and the beauty that drew me. It makes me excited for the thought of Heaven and what it will be like!! I just can't imagine! It also makes me think about what I have done lately to prove that I deserve this gift? What have I done lately or am I doing to further the kingdom? What is my purpose here? I go to work and home everyday, I am a slave to my debt and feel like I can't get any were I until I get rid of it. Lesson learned? Yes but I know that I need to be doing something I am just not sure what. I am reminded of a story that a pastor told us once when he was asking people to volunteer in the Church. He said that him and his brother were play and he fell and hit his foot. In extreme pain he looked down and saw that his little toe nail was gone. Oh the pain he said. He said that it was something very small and that did not seem very important to him until it was missing. He explained that even though you might feel like you are not doing anything major in the church or in life and that no one will miss you the truth is that every thing that everyone does is important and when you are gone everyone feels it. So I guess I know that there is nothing to small that I can do but I just need to start doing it. What do you all do to help bless people and please God?
