Life is what we do everyday. Not what we plan to do far in the future as our grand scheme. Not what we are working on and will some day be published. Our life’s work is now. It is today, it is this very moment in the way we choose to live our lives that people will remember us… or something greater.
Life is only worth living for a greater purpose than ourselves. So let every moment of our lives be shining examples of hope for those in the dark around us.
“The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedon for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion– to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor.
They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations.” ~ Isaiah 61: 1-4
