I can’t be the only one out there who watches the news or get’s a notification on their phone and thinks, “how am I supposed to make a difference in this world?” Not only as a human do I struggle with this question but also as a Christian. I am only one person, how can I serve others and make a difference everyday?
While I don’t claim to know the answer to this in any way, I do know that praying, journaling and utilizing my planner have helped me to stay on top of these worries and questions. When I reflect back to God and I take time to plan things out, this question of “how can I make a difference” seems so much less daunting.
I was fortunate enough to be gifted a review copy of Be the Difference from Ink and Willow. This LOVELY planner is set up in a very journal like way and I think it serves its purpose very well! This planner is set up with various prompts and spots for you to reflect on your own progress. A few key sections of it that I adore are:
- A place to share things/topics I find interesting and I am passionate about.
- Monthly reflections on your progress.
- Things you want to advocate for/take action for.
- A read/watch/listen list by month (more for fun!).

Those are just a few of the items I am LOVING about this planner. I cannot wait to start it at the beginning of August and give it a go for myself. I will be sure to share updates here on how it’s going for me, and how it helps me view the question “how am I supposed to make a difference in this world?”
This lovely planner is out in the world August 9th, so preorder your copy today! It would make a great back to school gift for a high school or college student as well!
