"At the end of the game the king and the pawn go back in the same box." - Italian ProverbNo matter how important we believe ourselves to be, how brightly we may shine in the limelight, or how hard we may toil in dim anonymity, death is the great equalizer.
In the end only this will matter to God -- Did we do what He positioned us to do for His glory? And, did we genuinely and selflessly serve His people?
That’s what Nehemiah did. It’s why in the end --- after he had overseen the rebuilding of the wall; and, had taken care of the needs of the people even at the expense of his own comfort and ease, he prays to God in Nehemiah 13:31 his last recorded words, “Remember me, O my God, for good.” That’s legacy in leadership.
You and I should be living and serving not for the next office, title or position, but for our legacy.
When it's all said and done, how will you and I be remembered? On your first day in office, you should be thinking about your last. And serve with the end in mind.
