Legend & Legacy

In the wake of a loss of a great singer Whitney Houston and what her life has meant to people all over the world, let us not forget what this legendary figure has taught us in her legacy. In all of her accomplishments we should understand that all of us have a great gift inside of us and that we should not be afraid to share it with the rest of the world. Who knows how many people we can inspire and encourage to bring forth what God has put in them. We all can reflect on Whitney Houston's career and all of the great songs from such a beautiful voice that brought so many to have hope and brought many to tears of joy through her words. Imagine, if she never picked up a microphone because she was afraid or thought someone was better than her; think of moments when you heard her sing and how her voice lifted you. Remember, you can do the same thing also with what is inside of you. Greatness is inside all of us and at this very moment, we need to ask God to give us the wisdom to "crack the bottle" sort of speak and unleash what we have kept hidden because the world is waiting for the light in you to shine (Romans 8:19). Do not wait another moment to get in gear the destiny that lies before. God will lead you every step of the way but hasten to His throne first so He can bring the greatness out of you. What legacy will you leave behind for future generations?
