Let us thoroughly examine our lives and each moment we live going forward and carefully raise our children so that the legacy we live behind is a great and very godly one. We must be careful about this and force ourselves to be unselfish to teach them and nurture them in the path of God so they can be better than us and wise enough to maintain and increase the inheritance they receive from us. You have just this one chance to make a good and everlasting impression in this earth through your children. Make it a great one so that if and when you go to be with God, they’ll carry on your godly legacy. (In memory of My Mother Grace Onyeche Etoh (1950-2015) who loved me and my siblings so much that she lived and died leaving us a God-Legacy)
Numbers 27:15-17
15 Moses said to the Lord,
16 “May the Lord, the God who gives breath to all living things, appoint someone over this community
17 to go out and come in before them, one who will lead them out and bring them in, so the Lord’s people will not be like sheep without a shepherd.”
