When the life of a good and upright person is remembered the blessings from that person's life continue to flow. But if someone even bothers to remember a wicked and unjust person there is nothing to that memory but a nasty rotten stench.
HEBREWS 6:12 (MSG)
Don’t drag your feet. Be like those who stay the course with committed faith and then get everything promised to them.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Imitate those who faithfully stay the course and the influence of your life will extend beyond the years of your earthly life.
DAILY FODDER
What will people say about you at your funeral? Ten years after you die?
PRAYER
Righteous Savior, through your faithfulness, reliability, and sacrificial goodness you have established a life for us that goes on forever. Forgive me for living as though what I have right now is all that matters. Broaden my perspective so that my legacy is a blessing that draws others to Christ. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
We hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening there.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you would protect us from all forms of evil.
Amen!
