Proverbs 22:1,4; “1 A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.  4 Humility and the fear of the LORD bring wealth and honor and life”

What amazing wisdom and insight – “a good name is more desirable than great riches;”  which begs the question, What will distinguish you from others? What distinguishes you from your predecessors?

Will you leave behind a legacy of kindness, faithfulness, and honesty? I am reminded of the song recorded by Steve Green “Finds us faithful.”

  Today, I just want to encourage you to focus on these things today. I want to encourage you to think of others before you think of yourself, your needs, your desires (Phil. 2:3). Lets make a genuine effort to lift, encourage, exhort, and love others in the same manner as Jesus  who gave up his life so that we may live.
