Today I watched the Extreme Home Makeover that took place on the Westside of my home town, Buffalo New York. This woman's story has literally put me into almost non-stop tears the entire two hours. Dolores Powell seriously is an inspiration to us all. The determination this woman has is unbelievable. It is amazing to see someone who has so little touch so many lives. Her house was literally condemned yet she took the time to help her nieghborhood and see others succeed. This lady's life is evidence that you don't need to have the perfect situation to impact people and ignite change around us. CHANGE requires GIVING of ourselves, giving OUR LIVES.
“For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake will find it.” – Matthew 16:25
