As promised, each week I will dedicate one or two blog posts to the idea of “Living on Purpose, not by Accident.”  Why?  Because we all end up somewhere, but few people end up somewhere on purpose.”  

Imagine this scene.  You’re in a big church sanctuary about to attend one of the most important occasions in your life.  You’re surrounded by hundreds of people that you know well – family, friends, colleagues, neighbors – anyone who you consider an important part of your life.  The church is packed but there’s no talking – only sounds of sniffling.  There’s a big box in the front and everyone seems to be focused on that box.  You know what’s in the box right???

YOU!  This is your funeral and it’s about to begin.  Here’s the question you need to answer today while you still can: WHAT DO YOU THINK PEOPLE WILL SAY ABOUT YOU?

What will your spouse say?  What will your parents say?  What will your friends say?  What will your neighbors or co-workers say?  What do you want them to say?  How about God Himself – the True Judge – what do you think He’d want to say at the end of your life?
