18-AUGUST-2024 - LASTING LEGACY

MAIN THEME IS: WHY AM I HERE?

TITLE: LASTING LEGACY

The quote for today’s devotional is:

A good character is the best tombstone.  Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when the forget-me-nots have withered.  Carve your name on hearts, not on marble.”  – Charles Spurgeon

Devotional

Legacy means something that is passed on.  Legacies are meant to be something of impact that leave pathways and provide guidance for future generations. 

There are different types of legacies:

  • monetary or personal tangible assets
  • example set for others to guide their futures through one’s character, reputation and the life you lead.
  • one’s faith and values

Leaving a lasting legacy isn’t about fame or fortune but about making a positive impact on others. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s fight for justice and equality continues to inspire people today. 

His legacy wasn’t built overnight but through consistent acts of courage, kindness, and faith.

Your legacy is shaped by the choices you make every day. How you treat others, the values you uphold, and the kindness you show all contribute to the legacy you’ll leave behind. Remember, your actions today can inspire and bless others for generations to come.

Here are a few reflective questions:

  1. Proverbs 10:7 reminds us that a righteous life leaves a lasting blessing. Am I living a righteous life?
  2. What legacy am I preparing to pass on?
  3. How can I start building my legacy through positive actions today?

Let us pray:

Dear Lord, help me to discover why I am here, and please give me the courage to build a lasting legacy while living my purpose. Amen!

Please say these words of affirmation. Say them, mean them, own them and live them

  • I am here to build a lasting legacy of kindness, faith, and positive impact. 
  • I will make a difference with lasting impact.

Do have an amazingly impactful day. I’ll see you tomorrow.
