Good Morning!
I am still kind of numb and emotional about what happened yesterday and at the same time, I am so very proud of Eastview Christian Church! They truly lived their vision statement yesterday - A fearless church of Christ followers whose ridiculous love and dangerous witness are irresistible. All praise and glory to God!!
Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: 2 Timothy 1:1-7 ~ Paul tells Timothy that part of the reason he has such a strong faith is because it was passed down from his mom, Eunice #leavealegacy
Paul calls Timothy his son! He loved him like a son and taught him much, but tells him that his faith began with his grandmother and mother - Lois and Eunice. What a strong legacy they left in Timothy!
Look at verse 7 - "For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.
Isn't this an interesting verse to read and ponder the day after a near tragedy? The staff, the kids, the staff and volunteers at Eastview all acted yesterday with a spirit of power and strength and love.
What legacy will you leave? I looked out over the crowd as I sang for my grandma's funeral and I saw a strong legacy she had left behind: both sons were ministers, two of her daughters were minister's wives and one was an elders wife, among her grandchildren there was a missionary, preachers, preacher's wives, youth ministers, christian musicians, and all the great grandchildren that were old enough had made life changing decisions for Jesus!
I ask again, What legacy will you leave behind?
