Worry, anxiety, busyness, running around, trying to make ends meet, scheduling this, that and the other, work, work, work.
What’s it all for?
In 100 years, I won’t be here.
Even in 50 years, will any of this matter?
Yes and no.
I do believe that what we do in this life matters.
Yet sometimes in my day to day life I forget that fact and get caught up in the rush and worry of life and forget that what I do has an impact on others and society.
What we do in this world is highly important because we only have one life, and yet it’s not important at all because once we’re gone, who remembers us and all our worry and busyness?
BUT it does matter because I remember my dad, my grandparents, my aunt, my cousin and the lives they lived and how they were a part of my life and how they influenced me and how they influenced me now impacts you because I’m writing about them and you’re reading what I’m writing and in some way that is influencing and changing your life.
These words that I write now will have an impact on whoever may read them in the future. Maybe in 100 years no one will read what I’ve written, but then again, maybe they will and that makes what I do now, in this life, worth it.
I can change someone’s eternal destiny by what I write, especially if I point them to Jesus.
And that definitely makes it worth it.
