God has your number. When he created you, God retired your number. You are the only one to possess your number ….no other exists. God has given us the opportunity to leave a certain legacy in life that will match with that number …you know ….the one He retired, in your behalf. Life is like a game of sports. We run the race (as Paul did), trying to achieve our best, trying to win. We go through a certain processes to achieve those goals. At the end, the total button is hit, and our number comes up. Will our legacy match the one that God had planned for us? Too often we get caught up in building a successful career, big cars, big boats, big 401K, and lots of valuable assets. Generally, these assets are of WORLDLY-VALUE and it is the same legacy that we leave in the form of materials accumulated; as opposed to HEAVENLY-VALUE. Our Heavenly Legacy is measured in terms of humility, faithfulness, loyalty, service to mankind, and LOVE. What kind of Legacy to you intend to leave. What’s your heavenly number? Deuteronomy 24:16 – The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin. Matthew 6:20-21 – But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your HEART will be also. Job 14:5 – Since his days are determined, and the number of his months is with you, and you have appointed his limits that he cannot pass.…Blessings…cjlb…3//19/14
