Today you might find yourself tempted to give in, "go with the flow" – it may seem harmless at the moment until you remember that we are each building a heritage/a legacy for others to see and say, “you made a difference in my life. You inspired me.” In order to do that, we must not give in, even to what appears to be the smallest of temptations – like participating in gossip, or giving an opinion where not welcomed nor invited, or supposing to know another’s motives in a negative light.
Don’t give in. It will change everything!
Know this: you are not alone. Others have been where you are and stood fast for much is at stake. Remember: No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. 1st Corinthians 10:13
I believe in you and there are so many that are watching your moves this very day to see how you handle the trials (known or unknown to them) that befall you. You have the opportunity make a difference everywhere you go. Will you be remembered for bringing light and joy or for bringing "down" a room? The choice is yours. It's your legacy to build. Stand up and be the difference.
