How a Woman's Every Day Shapes an Eternal Legacy

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil,for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. Does re her words
The biblical story of Esther is a majestic story, but within that story there is a simple truth!
Esther doesn’t belong. She is not of royal descent. She is not princess, let alone a queen, that’s what the voices inside her head are telling her.

she’s Jewish. She’s an exile. She’s living away from her homeland. She’s an orphan. Her parents are gone, and she was taken in and raised by her cousin Somehow, with all these strikes against her, she’s become the queen to a man she doesn’t love. The fine clothes she wears, the perfume, the attendants to wait on her every need are finery that she considered foreign.
Every day her heart cries out in wonder, What am I doing here? And in the same breath, I Don’t belong.
We suspect that the voices inside Esther’s head are the voices you’ve heard as well. They are all the voices telling you that you don’t belong or aren’t good enough or don’t measure up to some magazine, Christian television talks/shows, ad etc.
The saga for Esther doesn’t end, however, simply with her elevation to the position of queen. There’s something more. It seems that God always has something more for us, something that might stretch us well beyond what we might choose for our-selves.

                What Is Legacy?

So what do we mean by legacy? It’s certainly a grand word, and a daunting word at that. So let’s start by what we don’t mean.
Legacy is not the idea of leaving financial wealth to someone only. It’s not reserved only for people whose names will be in history books, on magazine, or in record books. Legacy is far more.
It is the story of your life that lives on after you leave this earth. You write this story every day through the values you embrace and live out. Your legacy can be positive or destructive, but the
outcome is always up to you.

Now listen to this!
Building a legacy through your “only one life” is not a calling for the elite few. It is a calling for you—as a woman/man with unique capacity to shape the future through your faith, family, gifts, and leadership. Only One Life will encourage and empower you to develop grit, grace, and the long
view—able to change your world forever—starting today.
