GIVE IT – – – OR LEAVE IT

If you don’t give it now, you will leave it all soon enough.

Most people have it backwards:

Leave a lot of loot.  Pile it up, stash it away, save it for someday—and die.  Then who gets it?  And what does it do to them?

Leave a lot of loot,

OR

Leave a legacy.

Legacy is not measured in dollars or houses or land.  It is Character—what’s there before and what’s left after all the rest is stripped away.

Legacy is what people would say you did for them when no one knew.

Give it all now, because you will leave it all soon.

MARRIAGE COUNSELING MYTH—

“You wouldn’t go to a doctor to cure your illness if he has the same illness and couldn’t cure it in himself.”

“Don’t go to anyone for marriage counseling if he couldn’t save his own marriage.”

 

Myths—both of them.

 

Instead, the people most effective in helping others are often those who have been through the same fire themselves, even the fire of falling into sin or the fallout from the fire of another’s sin.
