“SO LIVE THAT YOUR LIFE WILL BE AN INSPIRATION…” By Rev. Dan Minor
revdminor@att.net _____________________________________ “You are the light of the world…” – Matthew 5:14 In Scotland there is a lighthouse called Old William’s Light. It was named after a man by that name whose responsibility, among other things, was to keep the light burning. One day the people in the community were concerned because they had not seen him for a while. It turned out there had been a big storm the night before and he knew the light needed to be lit that night so he went out into the storm, climbed the long stairs to the top in order to turn on the light. He caught sick and died in the night. His work was finished, but it was up to someone else to keep the light burning. This makes me think of how our lives influence others. As believers in the living Christ, we have the privilege and responsibility of being Christian role models in our family, our church and our community. During my years of pastoring churches, there was a period when I was averaging a funeral each week. In preparing for the service I would sit down with the family and ask, “What qualities do you most remember about your loved one?” The response would be "His love for his family” or “She was so nurturing and caring.” Along these same lines we have heard people say things like “You have your father’s sense of humor” or “You have your mother’s smile.” Words such as these indicate that at the end of the day, we all leave something of our character behind. We are better persons because of the positive examples others have had upon us. There is one thing better and that is being that person who becomes a positive example for others. Every day is a day when we can set an example by “doing what is good” (Titus 2:6,7) and setting an example “in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity” (2 Timothy 4:12). Jesus has left us the perfect example. As believers, we are keepers of the light. Our role is to keep the light of His love burning in our hearts, our homes and in our world. Prayer: “So live that your life will be an inspiration and your memory a benediction.” (Unknown source) Fish Fry, Otsego V.F.W. Post 3030 Friday, October 7th - 5:00-7:30pm Public Welcome
