Colin Powell's Story You never know when an action you take can have a dramatic impact on someone's life. Colin Powell tells the story of a wealthy Japanese businessman who came to his office when he chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. This man told how scared he was when the "American Beast" was arriving in Japan in 1945. But, instead of meeting a beast he met a smiling G.I. who gave him a Hershey bar. This businessman came to give Colin Powell a large check for the U.S.O. The kindness of that one G. I. made such an impression on that man, that when Colin Powell gave him a large Hershey bar with his signature on it, the man cried. Believe God for a great impact from your marriage and family. When you get older I hope you begin to see the impact of your life in people and in organizations that will outlive you.
