| Our Legacy |

| We just witnessed the passing of a great man, Tim Russert. He was a great newcaster, politicians feared his interviews but more importantly, he was a great family man and his faith meant the world to him. Night after night we have seen tributes on TV, and it is most fitting there are tributes. He left a mark on America, and people who never knew him are saddened by his passing. It got me wondering....what will my legacy be? There is a song by Steve Green "Find us faithful", and it speaks about will those who come after us after we are gone see our faithfulness to Christ. Mr. Russert left a legacy. Will I leave a legacy even greater than his? What will people think and say of me when I am gone? As a Christian, I want to be known for one thing...and that is to be known as a follower of Christ. We must be faithful to the calling of Christ and live for Him. Anybody who has lived totally for Christ has left their mark on the world. Dr. D. James Kennedy, Mother Theresa, Pope John Paul II are a few names that come to my mind on people who lived totally for Christ and the world is a better place because they obeyed. I want to be known as a good dad, a good husband, a good provider but most of all, a true and faithful follower of Christ. Hopefully, what Mr. Russert taught his son will have a lasting impression on America, and hopefully how I live for Christ will have a lasting impression on the world. |
