Tonight I find my self standing on the grave of one of my closest mates and one of the greatest examples of you that has ever walked this earth. And I start thinking of everything that this man of god has achieved in his short but effective life. He truly loved you with all his heart and would have gone to the ends of the world If you asked him to. He was one of your beloved children that did everything that you asked him to not only to the bare minimum but he did every task with all of his heart and all of his soul, he completed each task with excellence. As I stand here and think about his life I am amazed at the legacy he left behind in each and every person that was close to him. Even though he does not walk with me on this earth, I see him in the people he loved most. I see his furious passion in his younger brothers the same passion that lives in me the passion to see your will done on this earth. I see his humor through his best mates the same humor that allowed him to draw many young people to your feet, the same humor that made him the man that anyone could come to and feel joyous around him. I also see his dreams through the many hearts that he discipled the same dreams that are in my heart the same dreams that will see broken nations come to see the love of our loving father. The same dreams that help us get through our everyday lives the same dreams that cannot and will not be silenced by this world. Through this mans life I see a living and breathing legacy that lives beyond his time on this earth, and I am stirred up and I ask my self what will be my legacy, will it be a man who had a lot of potential in god but never stepped out and run with everything god had giving him, or will it be that of a man who walked and talked with the mighty god himself, a man that was so dependent on him that he lived out of his strength and not his own. A man that was willing to get his hands and feet dirty in the work of the lord and rejoicing in every thing that the lord has laid in front of him good or bad. Will I be known as a man of god that served him with all his heart and a man who laid down his life for the will of the almighty god?
What will be the legacy that you leave behind?
