A Legacy is something that is transferred or passed on to others. You are in the process of creating a Legacy every day you are alive. Everyone leaves a legacy of some kind. An inheritance is different than a Legacy. An Inheritance is something tangible you give to others such as valuables, things, money, real estate, etc. Things people inherit are temporary because all things of the world are temporary. A great Legacy is something that you can create within others. You are making an impression on those around you now by the way you interact with others, the way you do business, and the way you communicate and treat others. The late Billy Graham had this to say about Legacy: “The greatest legacy one can pass on to one’s children and grandchildren are not money or other material things accumulated in one’s life, but rather a legacy of character and faith.” Leave the ones you love the greatest legacy in the universe, the knowledge and the life changing power of believing in, knowing, and walking with Jesus Christ.

One of the greatest gifts God grants those who surrender to His son is Peace. When you have God’s peace you can face anything. But the only way you can receive peace from God is to first make peace with God. And the only way you can make peace with God is by accepting His son as your Lord and Savior.
