Someday your tombstone will state your birth date and death date.  Our life is not about a beginning and an ending, but of all that takes place in between.  Of course our tombstones can’t tell it all, but it is what happens between those two dates that is our witness and the shaper of our legacy.  It is about your heartaches, sufferings, and relationships, in short, all of your work on earth.  It is about what Christ did through you.  Live all the days between these dates to God’s glory.

 “Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father” Colossians 3:17 (NASB).
