The Day I Die

We have worked hard as a family to make sure that if one of us or both of us die then the rest of the family will not suffer because of their loss. Obviously we will miss the other but I am talking about funeral cost, business issues, house mortgage, and on and on. Knowing that this is in place feels good, not that I am planning on dying but to be honest I have already died so why not get prepared.

Right now is as far from the Kingdom of God as I will ever be, for darkness and Satan this is as close as he will ever get.

What will be left of me when I am gone? Obviously, house, car, impact of ministry, business accomplishments, lives that have been touched and changed and on and on. But what about what people will say about me, what about my memory, what about the residue of me that I leave on everyone whom I have ever meet?

I am talking about who I am today, the way I choose to respond to people, places and things today will directly affect how people will remember me. I can say that if I died today people would say about me, Brian was a man who:
Loved God
Loved his wife
Loved his children
Loved people
Gave his life to leave others better than he found them
Lived his life a transparent, His heart could be seen through his lifestyle
Built a good, God fearing, relationship oriented company which shapes the place in which people live.
Loved life
Loved the mountains
Loved to fly
Loved to flow prophetically
Loved to see people be transformed through the power of God

What about you? What will people say about you when you die?
