Very few of us will admit that we want a life of mediocrity, but at the end of the day, so many of us have been willing to settle for it. Most of us, I’m sure, would like to live a great life, to be well known, to be praised, adored, loved. Not that most of us are willing or know anything of the sacrifice it takes to live a great life. Nevertheless, those who are slightly wiser may want their greatness to echo through the ages, to be remembered a hundred years, a thousand years after their time. Imagine. Wouldn’t that be something.
But this is what I’m really wondering. Will you leave behind a legacy, or will you leave behind the Christ? Because no matter how great you are, there is only one name that will never fail. It is a name that you and I can carry with pride, a name which brings life, and life in abundance. Do you know what name I’m talking about? Do you know who I am talking about? No…do you know the person that I am talking about?
Let your Legacy be written in the heavens. Let your name be written in the book of life. But here on earth, let it be the name of the LORD that is remember through your life.
If I am remembered it will be because of God, if He is remembered, let me have something to do with it. Because He loves me. And I love Him too.
