What Will You Leave-F
For thousands of years, people have left material things behind upon their demise. We brought nothing into this world, and nothing is what we will take out. When we die, we rest from our labors, and our works follow us.
In a life time, one can achieve vast amounts of material wealth of all sorts.
We leave such wealth to our families, museums, universities, or our favorite charities.
Many others do not pursue or manage to obtain vast amounts of material wealth. Some reach their end having acquired reservoirs of experience, knowledge, wisdom, and understanding.
It is expected of us, and we find it easier in most cases, to transfer our material possessions. It may be more difficult to pass on to others our acquired possessions of spiritual fortunes. But transfers we most assuredly will make, often by default, by demonstrating what we love the most.
But the questions are:
Will we seek to leave behind the great Godly qualities of our character?
Will we thrive to share our colossal treasures of Christian principles?
Will we determine to distribute an abundance of eternal riches that will forever last? Or will we transfer a wealth of Godly wisdom that will not quickly pass?
Indeed, we must to all express, that life’s greatest quest is serving God and leaving behind our spiritual nest.
Indeed, we must release no less than our very best, before we depart to our eternal rest.
