Faith, Love, and Prayer

What do you want your legacy to be? 

For years, I lived my life without giving it much thought. I had the same routines, and my goal was to make it through the day. I looked forward to the weekends so I could take time off from work. But nothing really excited me or made me want to get out of bed in the mornings. 

I existed, focusing on survival rather than truly living and thriving. 

I didn’t do anything to feed my soul, and it was starving for direction and attention. I needed something to work toward that was just for me. In all honesty, I needed to grow. My soul was craving connection and expansion, while I continued to disconnect and die a little each day.

The turning point in my life came when I decided to work on the person underneath my scars. When I decided to work on my inward self, my outward self started to grow. 

I learned that the most significant achievement I can have is to become the person God created me to be and to have an exceptional relationship with Him. 

I want my legacy to be my faith and love. 

Throughout my life, I aspire to genuinely love God and others, sharing my experiences to guide others to the Lord. I don’t want to only talk about the Lord; I want to experience Him. I don’t want only to tell others about the Lord; I want them to show them the Lord. 

Every day that I love the Lord and others, I grow and perform my mission. When I use the gifts the Lord has given me and follow Him, it feeds my soul. Spending time with the Lord and talking to Him is my favorite part of the day. I love having my coffee with Him. 

When we are working on a new project, I get excited and want to get out of bed in the mornings. I love doing this work with the Lord. I love helping others and talking about the Lord. 

One day, my mission here will be complete. My greatest hope is that I can light a path to the Lord, so that those who are in darkness can also find the light of God. And walk toward Him with love. 

So I tell my loved ones about God, and I tell God about my loved ones. 

When I die, I want to leave a few things behind:

  • My testimony of how God saved my soul.
  • My love for others.
  • Prayers I have prayed for those I love. 

One thing I know for sure: I don’t want my family’s salvation to end with me. It’s a gift I want to be extended from generation to generation through love and prayer.

Proverbs 13:22 KJV

22 A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children’s children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.
