I WAS HERE

I think about Tom Hanks in Cast Away writing on that rock before venturing to his assumed escape/death. Or sitting in the stall in Wal-mart looking up to see "Who was here and Who loves who". And even looking at a gravestone.
And that makes me think.

Do we/I have a life that says at the end... "I WAS HERE".
I am not talking about graffiti, even though I think I secretly would like to spray paint something, w/o consequences OF COURSE.
But am I living a life worthy of a Legacy for my kids.
A legacy to those around me.
Because as a christian I believe we are suppose to show others, teach others, and be there for others when needed.
So what does a life like this look like. I don't think it can not be done living in a box. I don't think it can be done just on Sunday. Or Wednesday.
I think it is everyday. With those around us... and stepping out of the box and taking action for the good God things & the good God Plans.

There are a few people at our church and other I know that live this out. That my kids look up to . .HECK that I look up to. And I think. Thank GOD they are there. Thank GOD I have a good example of living a life worthy of example worthy of not imitation.. b/c there is only ONE that I should be imitating.

Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

I remember what my mom told me. When you have to clean your room and it is a total disaster. Start in the corner and work your way out. ...
