My Legacy

Find joy in passing along God's legacy. How important it is to live a legacy! Israel (Jacob) had received it in turn from his father. Then it was Israel's turn to leave it to the following generation. Life goes on a generation at a time. Each generation builds upon (or destroys) what the previous generation leaves behind.

A legacy can be thought of as a kind of inheritance. Usually when we think of an inheritance, we think of cash and various physical assets. A much more important inheritance is a spiritual one. What kind of people we lead the next generation? Very often, people follow the example of those who precede them, whether good or bad. So, the example set is vitally importance. 

Church leaders has a great responsibility in this regard (! Tim. 4:12); Titus 2:7). WE are responsible for the 'legacy' we leave behind in life and teaching. Our legacy includes our sense of humility, the way we interact with others, and a holy lifestyle. We will be remembered longest for what we did, not what we said. The condemnation of those who set a bad example will be severe ( Mark 9: 42). I Thank God for the leaders He placed in my life for they are leaving a legacy in my life. Not forgetting to honor them, for this is the key of GREATER GLORY ( a real manifestation of God's glory that people can see how great is our GOD!!!).
