This morning I was reading in 1 Chronicles 20:4-8 where God's people ended up slaying a slew of giants. Who were these people doing the giant slaying?
They were David's followers and family--the people who had watched him or heard of him slaying giants since boyhood.
What a legacy.
This makes me think of the legacy that each of us is leaving to the people in his or her own sphere of influence.
Someone is watching me (and you). Someone is listening to family stories about me (and you). Someone is and will be carrying out my legacy (and yours).
It's a scary thought for this day-after-Halloween.
By God's grace, though, the story of my life (and yours) is not over yet. God has given me a new chance to let Him make today's story one worth repeating.
Okay, so bring on those giants.
