The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”Mark 12:31
Recently I was visiting the Idaho Veterans Cemetery and saw the back side of a Veteran headstone where the spouse info was placed and my title today is what it said. How odd? Why? I never knew a private sentiment could be chiseled in the marble headstone provided as a benefit to the veteran and their spouse.
Would you want what people remember about you to be so blunt and straight forward? I joked and said if I had a Civilian headstone and not the VA marker I would put “I told you I was sick”. Might bring a chuckle to a grieving friend.
What are people going to remember about you? Our life here is so short even though many live as if there is nothing else. What do you want people to remember you by. I want to have an altar call where people who don’t know Jesus have a chance for salvation. Let your ministry go on beyond your temporary life.
PRAYER: I thank you for second chances and for redemption and for grace. Guard my heart to not fall into the deceitfulness of Satan and protect my family from the lies of Satan. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
