Legacy

So I found out Saturday morning that my great grandmother had passed and at first I was sad because that means I will never be able to hug her again or talk to her about how things use to be or about how good God is, and then I realized that she is in a much better place, she was on this earth for One-Hundred and Four years and was sane for all of it, and although she had a ton of children and grandchildren and great grandchildren, she never forgot.

She was one of the best woman I have ever had the pleasure of knowing, she would always say that she would ask God many times why she was still here, why after her husband had been gone for so many years, why after her own children had passed, why after all this time when it didn't seem like there was any reason for her to be here and every time he told her "I am keeping you here to pray". Isn't it funny that we could look back on our lives and not be able to connect the dots, not be able to see the impact of the things that we are doing and at times it can seem disheartening, but you have no idea the people you are affecting and how small and insignificant it may seem to you, it is very important that you do it.

My Grandmother left behind something amazing...a legacy, she did this very simple thing, she lived for the Lord, taught her children to do the same and prayed, for 104 years she prayed and for 104 years she changed peoples lives and now that shes up there I know she is smiling down and connecting the dots and seeing just how fruitful her life was simply because she chose to be obedient.

My goal is to leave such a great legacy like she did so that one day when its my turn I can look down and know that what I did was good and what I did changed peoples lives and what I did was exactly what I was suppose to do...leave a legacy. I bid you all a farewell till next time.

Warm Regards,
