Legacy


Have you ever thought about the legacy you wanted to leave behind?


what if today was your last day to live?


what would you want people to remember about you?


lt seems as though death has been close to me recently. last year a friend of mine died. he was in the middle of worsip and he went unconscious and never woke up.


about a month ago a lady who was in my bible study passed away in her sleep. she had just past her one year anniversary of marriage and was only 31 years old.


a couple of children in my life are really ill.


it's funny cuz we expect the elderly to pass before the young, but life doesn't always work like that.


again, what would you want your legacy to be?


would you want people to remember all your great accomplishments? or the time that you shared with them?


how hard you worked? or intimate moments?


we get sooo caught up in the pace of the world, but are we stopping long enough to enjoy life?


i want to look back on my life and have no regrets. i want to feel good about my accomplishments, but more than that i want to be remembered for touching lives with God's love. God, help my heart to be stayed on You. be the center of my life and let others see me stick out all over for You.
