““The master was full of praise. ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities. Let’s celebrate together! ’”
Matthew 25:21 NLT
We are all put on this earth with a purpose that is uniquely ours. God had shaped each and everyone of us to be different looking, different talents and different personalities. There is a set of tasks God has for you that you and you alone are equipped to accomplish. This is our kingdom legacy. What did we achieve for the Father while we were here?
Some people think that about their legacy but they frame it in the perspective of what mankind will say about them when they are gone. Wrong direction! What matters first is not what others may say about us but what God says about you. Our verse today shows us the way. Our desire should be to hear God say to us “Well done my good and faithful servant”.
What God says about us is truly the only thing that will count for eternity. Our desire today and everyday should be to do the will of our Father who loves us. When we are so focused on his will, our legacy will take care of itself. What a great confirmation of our life to hear our Father say to us “Well done my faithful servant, come let us celebrate together!”
Remember, our God watches over us, cares for us and loves us. He also will reward us beyond what we think or could ask for!
In Christ
