We can leave a legacy!
There are many things in this world that are fleeting, like fashions, for example. These come and go. I'm sure you, like me, forget some names, but there is one man who transcends everything: what was, what will be, and that name is Jesus.
We haven't noticed anything special about the apostle Paul. He doesn't end this chapter talking about his human achievements, his transformation, or some kind of personal glory. He ends with something far more important and says: "To him be glory throughout all generations."
Let's notice what is unique about the apostle Paul. He doesn't end this chapter talking about his human achievements, his transformation, or some kind of personal glory. He ends with something far more important and says: "To him be glory throughout all generations."
This means that everything we are, everything we have, every victory, every miracle, every opportunity, everything is through the Lord and for the Lord. That glory we leave to the Lord doesn't remain in a specific place or time, like a church, for example. That glory is passed on from generation to generation. It's like a call that never goes out and continues to shine in every person, in all those who decide to live for the Lord.
I invite you to leave your mark in this life. Live in such a way that your whole life gives glory to God, today and tomorrow, forever and ever. Amen.
21 To him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
Ephesians 3:21
