Leaving a Legacy
April 9, 2018
A scroll of remembrance was written in his presence concerning those who feared the Lord and honored his name.
Malachi 3:16
Some years ago our sons and I spent a week on an abandoned backcountry ranch on the Salmon River, Idahos River of No Return.
One day, exploring the ranch, I came across an ancient grave with a wooden marker. Whatever inscription the marker may have borne had long since been weathered away. Someone lived and diednow was forgotten. The gravesite seemed tragic to me. After we got home I spent several hours reading about the history of the old ranch and that area, but could find no information about the person buried there.
They say that the best among us is remembered for 100 years or so. The rest of us are soon forgotten. The memory of past generations, like our markers, soon fades away. Yet our legacy has been passed on through the family of God. How weve loved God and others in our lifetime lives on. Malachi 3:1617 tells us, a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear the Lord and who esteem His name. They will be Mine, says the Lord of hosts, on the day that I prepare My own possession (nasb).
Paul said of David that he served Gods purpose in his own generation and departed (Acts 13:36). Like him, may we love the Lord and serve Him in our generation and leave the remembering to Him. They will be Mine, says the Lord.
May I be faithful to You today, Lord, as I spend my time loving others with Your love. Help me to trust You with the legacy Im leaving behind.
Living for the Lord leaves a lasting legacy.
Throughout Scripture, we gather a picture of how to leave behind a godly legacy. Psalm 78:4 reminds us to tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done. Deuteronomy 6:57 declares: Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.
When we wholeheartedly love the Lord and others, live an obedient life that is pleasing to Him, and tell our family and others about the many wonders God has done throughout history and in our lives, we leave behind a legacy that can impact the next generation and the next and the next.
What legacy will you leave?

His age may be misstated. I don’t think they used 9 year old code talkers.

Hat tip to all the silent ones. And a
good Howl.

My uncle was in the 10th Mountain Division in WWII and told me about the Code Talkers in the early 60’s. I was born in Longmont had had no Idea that he was there.

Hai, I went to the company motel to stay. Tomorrow I fly to Bozeman, Missoula, Bismark. It’s a back and forth from Denver. Most crew try to get out of going there but heck, it’s flight time, adds up.

Just is case I messed up the numbers.....
Allen Dale June (November 28, 1921 September 8, 2010) was an American veteran of World War II. June was one of the 29 original Navajo code talkers who served in the United States Marine Corps during the war.
His obituary...(a problem with math)
