To Be Forgotten
Tuesday, April 29th, 2008"Someday, I will die. Someday, I will no longer be, save for a slab of stone with my name engraved on it along with the year of my birth and the year I came back home.
Someday, I will be forgotten from the minds of people. My name will no longer be on their lips. My essence will pass by the corners of this earthly home until it’s no more, like mist that wafts away at the gentlest breeze.
So I start now. To serve and not be recognized. To labor and not receive attention.To be forgotten so I can be closer to home.
I die to the desire to be remembered so that they will only remember Christ. And if they do remember me by chance, may their minds immediately be filled with the light and love of Christ.
My desire is to be forgotten for the sake of Christ, Who alone is my life. To die to this world and come home to Him would be my greatest reward."
