What's your legacy?

What do we want to be remembered for? What am I passing on to our children? What words describe me, our family, our history? What does our family stand for? What kind of stories will our children share about their childhood? What is important in our home? What qualities have been impressed upon your lifestyle? If you aren't exactly happy with what your legacy is....then do something about it. Start now. Start this very second. Stop using excuses. Stop blaming others for what you have not done. Claim yourself and your role in choosing to be different. Where is love in your home? What priority is placed on quality family time? Does the TV dominate your conversation? Turn it off. Have conversation with your child or teenager. It is not their job to initiate it. What kind of example are you being for your family? Can your character be known for good or bad? Are you faithful? Are you honest? Are you dependable? Sacrificing? Selfish? Easily angered? Will your children remember fun times or did you spoil their fun? What about God, church , commitment? Can your family honestly see us living for Christ everyday? What do you view on the internet? How's your language? Clean? Dirty? Are you a prude? Can you be free enough to enjoy a quick spin around the dance floor? Do you listen to disgusting jokes and laugh? Just exactly what kind of legacy am I making? You think it doesn't matter? What do you know about your parents? What did they stand for?
