About

Let’s have a quick one today as we continue talking about Legacy. We all want to be remembered for something when we leave this world. It is our desire that people will mention our names for what we’d have achieved even after we’re long gone; that others may even write about us. I am almost certain that must be a very good feeling. We are often advised to make the most of our youthful years and do as much as we can to be the best versions of ourselves. As much as being young is not an easy road, we can achieve this by doing a few things. Not necessarily like a road map but maybe a guideline on what we can do to leave a legacy. Read your BibleIt sounds very simple yet it requires a lot of discipline and commitment. Commit yourself to reading your Bible every day, not because it’s a ‘rule’ but for the desire to hear from God. To earn from His scriptures which are so refreshing. The living waters. This will surely please God and you will have lived a life that will set a good example for those coming after you. Pray Everyday Spend time with God; spare sometime amidst your busy schedule to have a quiet time with God and talk with Him. Prayer has a way of relieving us when stressed and worried, keeps us closer to God and is a great channel to build and grow a relationship with God. Pray Until Something Happens, just do not cease praying. Fellowship Interacting with people with whom we share certain values and interests keeps us on check and we keep growing. If you want to leave a legacy, learn to interact with people whereby you’re either the one learning from them, you’re all on the same level or you’re the one teaching them. This is very important because shared knowledge has no expiry date and what you know and can achieve keeps moving. You’ll always be remembered for the things you did and the way you treated those around you. Be a good friendShow up for your friends and family and be a good one. Whether it’s in the good times or the bad, work hard to be a really good friend. Friendships are important in life and whether they’re good or bad, they make a huge difference in the quality of lives we lead. Rev. Faith Ndungú has great insights on this topic today and I’m sure you’ll love to hear from her!
