I once read that once you know what you want your legacy to be, you can start building it.
Not long ago, I read the story of a woman whose actions caused Jesus to say that what she did would make her remembered. That her actions would be spoken of throughout time as a memorial of her. I quickly decided that I wanted to mindfully take on some of her characteristics. I want to be remembered well. I want to pass something meaningful to my children.
You can find her story in Matthew 26:6-13 and Mark 14:3-9.
