What an awesome legacy to those left behind!
I know so many people who are afraid of dying and dread it with a passion. I however....long for the day that my dear Jesus comes for us. Won't that be a wonderful day?

Hey Joshua,
Sorry for not posting for the longest time. :D
It was mainly because blogger had switched the way they did things with webpage blogs. So, I had to switch to Wordpress, and it's updated! http://andrewbiddinger.com/makeitcount/
Thanks for the encouragement and sharing this post!
Joshua,
Those are definitely good ways to be remembered, and I am pretty sure you WILL be remembered that way. :)
I want to memorize that list and keep it in mind as I go about my daily tasks... thank you for sharing.
In Christ's Service,
Sarah

Completely agreed. That will be an awesome day when we see Him face to face. Can't wait. :)
Andrew,
No problem bro. I know we all get busy sometimes. It is just the way of life, so I completely understand. :)
Sarah,
Glad I was able to share them and glad you payed attention to them. God is everything and I will serve Him with every ounce of my being. :)
Miss Kate,
I am overjoyed that I can be an encouragement to you. It is definitely a blessing when you see others following the same patterns that you are seeking after. I completely agree. :)
Joshua,
Your love for God and His One & Only Son Jesus Christ come shining through in everything you do and say. You are salt and light where God has placed you. Praise Him!
