Acts 1:2 … until the day he was taken

Acts 1:2 … until the day he was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles he had chosen.

There will come a day when you will no longer be here, you will have been taken to heaven. Until that day carry on. Until that day do the work. Until that day speak up and speak out. For when that day comes then your opportunity will be gone.

Are all your actions and words about now? If so then change that. Think about what happens after you have gone. What have you left behind? Is there anyone going to carry on what you are doing? Is there anyone who is speaking the language of love that you speak. Or does everything die when you die?

– the instructions: There are things in you that need to be revealed. You operate out of these beliefs, values and goals. There is a hidden DNA in you that people only see the benefit of. Reveal what is hidden.
What is most important in life?
How do you do what you do?
Why do you say what you say?

– through the Holy Spirit: He is your helper. Not everything inside you should be revealed! Make sure what you pass on is filtered by Him.

– to the apostles: Don’t pass on all that is in you to people who will not do anything with it. Give it to those who are also sent, the apostles. Give to people who will go further than you and do and say more than you. Build a legacy that reaches far and beyond you would ever possibly achieve on your own.

– he had chosen: Look around. Not through the eyes of man. Look at potential. Look for the willing. Look for those who will follow. Find some people. Choose someone. Don’t be taken empty handed. Everyone should be mourned not because of failure but because they are no more. Decide who they are and remain committed to them.
