"I thank my God always when I remember you in my prayers,

because I hear of your love and of the faith that you have

 toward the Lord Jesus and all the saints, and I pray that the

 sharing of your faith may become effective…"

~~ Philemon 1:4-6a

 

     President Bush is in a countdown mode now.  He has two years remaining in office and this November’s election is probably his most important of the past six years.  Why?  Well, if the Democrats take control of the House and Senate, then he becomes a “lame duck”. If the Republicans retain control, he has power.  This power shift is important for legacy building.  A lame duck cannot push through the last minute laws that a President needs to build his legacy.

    

    We too are in a count down mode in our lives.  Every minute brings us closer to death.  What legacy are you building?  Will someone remember you in their prayers as a “Great Christian Example” because of your Love, Faith, and Teaching?  Or will you just pass away in time as another “Good Christian” with no legacy to qualify that title?
