If we went to your funeral today what would the mourners say about your life?
As I sit at a funeral for my friend his pastor said to us that our friend had asked him to deliver a message to his family “ he wanted his sons to know that he never gave up trying to be the best person he could be for them”, it was a wake up for me. What do I want people to know about me?
I want my friends and families to know that I love them and I always give my best, even when it looks less, it’s my best.
I want my friends and family to know that I love God. I mean I love him bone deep and trust him with my life even when I’m scared and shaking in my boots, I TRUST GOD. I would want my family to know that prayer works, that when I am faced with challenges or disappointments, chaos or danger, I pray. I pray for myself and my circle. I believe in prayer and I know without prayer my life would be empty.
I would want my family to understand that life is not fair, but God is. He will make everything ok.
““I give you a new command: Love each other. You must love each other just as I loved you.”

Lastly I would want my loved ones to join me in the kingdom, not because God has been good to me but because what he can offer them that is not in the world. Get to k ow him for yourself because I have never once regretted turning my life over to him.
“I don’t mean that I am exactly what God wants me to be. I have not yet reached that goal. But I continue trying to reach it and make it mine. That’s what Christ Jesus wants me to do. It is the reason he made me his.”
Philippians 3:12 ERV
