That name sounds familiar...

In the current season of my life I'm amazed at how quickly the years fly by, let alone the days! It's caused me to value every day and cherish everyone around me. When I lying on my bed at night reflecting on my day, I want to be able to look back on it and have absolutely no regrets. I want to make every day count! As many of you know I'm a huge Boise State football fan. I was a fan through the dismal mid to late 80's and am thrilled at where they're at today. They have an amazing quarterback in Kellen Moore, who continues to dominate defenses and was even on the cover of this month's Sports Illustrated. I wonder how many people will remember Kellen Moore fifty years from now? As with so many sports stars, politicians, entertainers, etc, they're big for a season, and then they disappear. I've been thinking a lot lately about the legacy I want to leave. Not for any weird, proud or selfish reason, but simply because I want people to remember me for my love for Jesus and the life I lived for Him. If I choose to please the Lord in everything today, years down the road the fruit of my life is what will be impacting to others. What's your legacy going to be? Or will people only be able to utter, "that name sounds familiar"? Live today with no regrets!

  1. Makes me think of the verse in Proverbs 10:6, "The memory of the righteous is blessed, But the name of the wicked will rot."

    WOAH! Which will i be?
