Right after work today I went up North to Dumfries to meet up with 2 old High School teachers, Mrs. Scoleri & Mrs. Jackson. These two I will never forget and they mean the world to me and I'm blessed to have them in my life. I went through a lot with them in my High School career and stood by them as their FBLA Vice President and then President.
Mrs. Jackson was able to be apart of our BIG DAY, but Mrs. Scoleri was not which was part of our reason for meeting up so I could share all of our Wedding Photos with them and we could all catch up on life :-)
While going through the pictures one of them had the back of a head of a truly loved and dear man to our hearts, Mrs. Jackson goes that's the man I sat next to at the reception, I was like Bob Irby? and then my other teacher goes I know him from such and such church and his brothers owned a construction company.....I got kinda sad and had to tell them that he past away 2 weeks ago tomorrow....both teachers were very shocked with the news....
Then Mrs. Jackson tells me about her first impressions of Bob Irby and before she left how he spoke into her life; which later that day and the next day situations came up and she recalled exactly what Bob had said to her and it was exactly what she needed to hear. Because Bob was obedient to what God wanted spoken into her life she was able to be used by God which is what He wanted!
Just writing this God is continuing to speak to me...
How are you living your life? Are you leaving an impression on those that you meet even for a day? What kind of legacy are you leaving behind?
Our lives are so intertwined and you never know who you will run into that will make this world seem so much smaller.....Are you giving hope to those around you?
Are you allowing God to move through you? to speak through you?
Life is too short......Give it up to the One that matters....Let it go.....Stop holding on and tryng to control this life on your own....Live life to the fullest because you never know when your last day will be...
