In 50 years...

This is one of my go to statements, "In 50 years will it matter?" 

Now that I really think about it; It won't to me, but it will matter now.  I say that because any worthwhile legacy is made with the everyday choices in how we live our life and how others see us living it.  To me, that's the greatest testimony of being a Christian.

It reminds me of a great song (posted below).

One Thing Remains - Jesus Culture (lyric video)

It's valuable

With all that is going on in the world, and in particular in the United States with the economy, it came to my attention today that the value of life seems to be leading to a sacrosanct mentality.  Everyday I read of people being shot (at an alarmingly increasing rate), beaten, tortured and taking their own life.

It troubles deep within me that the raging crescendo seems to be gaining momentum and the only thing that can stop it is prayer for a paradigm shift of how people value other people.

If you are reading this, please pray for those that are feeling dejected, lost, or hopeless, to find a permanent relief to their situations in a peaceful manner and that we, as humankind, value the lives of others and that of our own.

Philippians 4: 6-7
 “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
