The Journey of Becoming: Building A Legacy

The righteous will be remembered forever.

— Psalm 112:6

Legacy is not about the things we leave behind but the lives we touch along the way. It’s the impact we make through our actions, words, and choices. Every day, in the ordinary moments of life, we are building something lasting—something that will ripple through the lives of those around us and beyond.

When I think of legacy, I’m reminded that it’s not defined by perfection but by presence. It’s in the way we love, encourage, and lift others up. It’s in the seeds of kindness we plant and the hope we nurture. A legacy isn’t something reserved for the distant future; it’s being written right now, in the choices we make today.

Why Legacy Matters

• It creates a meaningful impact on future generations.
• It reflects the values and love we’ve shared with others.
• It serves as a testament to God’s work in and through us.

How to Build a Lasting Legacy

1. Focus on Relationships: Invest time and love into the people around you.
2. Live Your Values: Align your actions with the principles that matter most to you.
3. Leave a Trail of Kindness: Choose to make a positive difference wherever you go.

Ask Yourself:

• What kind of legacy am I building today?
• How can I pour love and encouragement into someone else’s life?
• What values do I want to be remembered for?

An Invitation

Today, reflect on the legacy you’re creating. Know that every small act of love, every choice made with intention, and every moment shared with others contributes to a story worth remembering. Let your legacy be one of faith, kindness, and enduring impact.
