Posterity

By Dwayne Hicks | May 3, 2014 |

Finish Line, Just Ahead Green Road Sign Over Dramatic Sky, Clouds and Sunburst.I do want to be considered a success by people who know me. I really want to be considered a success by the Lord. I also want the people I’ve worked with and known for years to consider me successful. I have to say that I don’t want my posterity based on wealth or fame. I want my posterity based on how I walked with the Lord. I want my children and my children’s children to walk in the way of the Lord. Check this out…

15 But God will redeem me from the realm of the dead;

    he will surely take me to himself.
16 Do not be overawed when others grow rich,

    when the splendour of their houses increases;
17 for they will take nothing with them when they die,

    their splendour will not descend with them.
18 Though while they live they count themselves blessed –

    and people praise you when you prosper –
19 they will join those who have gone before them,

    who will never again see the light of life.
20 People who have wealth but lack understanding

    are like the beasts that perish. (Psalm 49:15-20 NIV)

 

I believe in God the Father.

I believe in Jesus Christ His Son.

I believe in the Holy Spirit of God.

I believe He prepared Heaven for those who know Him.

I believe that what I know about the Lord and how I walk with Him now will outlive any other accomplishments of my life.

Pressing On!
Dwayne
