For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time for my departure is near. I have fought
the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4:6-7
"A good man leaves an inheritance for his children’s children.” Proverbs 13:22
REPUTATION vs. LEGACY
- Your reputation is who you are supposed to be; Your legacy is who you are.
- A reputation is made in a moment; A legacy is built in a lifetime.
- Reputation is what men say about you on your tombstone; Legacy is what your children will live with for the rest of their lives
"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of
wickedness in the heavenly places."
Ephesians 6:12
For I am already being poured out like a drink offering, and the time for my departure is near. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4:6-7
